Yeah... it took like an hour to get the fitting for the costume and about 2 hours for the hair/hat... I couldn't sit back on chairs because of the hat (and the authentic underwear!) and the millions of hair pins in that bush of hair would have probably kebabed me.
It wasn't a simple fitting because the clothes were authentic... there wasn't a size 10 or 12 back in those days.
Wow that is so amazing, what kind of underwear was it? I don't even have an idea what it looked like back then. I can't imagine trying to anything that would fit me back then. O_O
Haha - It was a corset and a slip over it... the rest of the outfit consisted of a thick shirt with *hundreds* of buttons... thick wooly tights (they weren't authentic - haha) the thickest skirt you can imagine, a coat and then an overcoat and wearing the most uncomfortable boots known to man.
I was boiling. And they also smelled authentic. Bleugh.

My kitty Minou has finally moved in with us! He's been living with my in-laws since July or August because our previous apartments wouldn't let us have him and then we had to wait to have the money for the pet deposit/fee for our new place. Well, we finally got it! Also, we got a cute little 4-month-old black kitten that we named General Jack O'Neill...here are our little cuties snuggling on the couch.
Because I totally went to a summer program at North Carolina School of the Arts last year with someone named Paige who looks EXACTLY like her, iirc. o_o
Though I think she may have been from New Jersey. I didn't really know her, but she was living on the same floor/hall as me, and we were both in theatre (I think? It's been seven months, haha), so I knew her name and where she was from. Hmm.
