Gister deze film gekeken..Nicholas nickleby uit 2002. Het was een mooi verhaal, ben zelf niet zo weg van films waar kinderen zo behandeld worden maargoed, het loopt allemaal enigzins goed af. Wel de zakdoekjes erbij houden..tenminste ik wel hihi.
Het aller mooist waren de kostuums van de rondreizende acteurs!!!..zoals je ziet op deze foto's

silk damast pelisse 1815

The coat was made from gold silk damask woven with a pattern of small dots. The bodice, long sleeves, and skirt back are lined with brown linen/cotton. The centerpiece of the design is the Hussar-style Brandenburg trim on the bodice.

The skirt fronts are lined with ivory silk. te collar, cuffs, and bodice front are decorated with braided trim. There are very faint indentations on the skirt fronts, indicating the coat originally had braided trim along the front opening.

The long slender sleeves are capped with elaborately ruched outher sleeves. The bodice and outer sleeve seams are outlined with corded piping. The bodice is high waisted. The skirt is slightly flared in front and full in back. The coat closes in front with concealed silk fabric loops and covered buttons.
