Why do another design based on women's historical fashion when the men's attyre was soo much more fun during the colonial era? Pirates of the Caribbean, anyone? Mwahaha! Yay for frockcoats!!! Ahem, anywho. Onward!!! I have to admit, I love this color scheme to death, if that wasn't obvious when I made MY frockcoat recently

oooo, BREECHES!!!
Hmm, I have a friend who keeps telling me I need to get an outfit in which I can kick some 'serious booteh' - he was thinking tight leather, but I would go for this instead....
I like how the vest is buttoned on a diagonal, it's a nice twist on the colonial design. But my favorite part is the gloves. If you can't have a frock coat, well, have the gloves!

I do agree that the short bloomers look a bit odd without tights of some kind, or at least tall boot liners. I love the cuffs, but what really grabs me is the play of positive and negative space between the vest shoulders and crossed shirt, and then the collar and jabbot. Is that a touch of the jabbot lace at the cuff on her right hand?

why is everything you design so fantastic? If you don't win, I'll want to know why and have a talk with someone.

well I'm not sure what's with the kilt......
but what can I say, kilts are good too!
All I can think of is my art class last year, when two of the boys were obsessed with Scotland and were always talking about bagpipes, kilts, and swords ("five-foot-long claymores")...... they insisted on using heavy Scottish accents all the time too

I love the top to this... It looks wonderful. Not too much of a fan of the bloomers with so much skin showing between those and the boots, but it does work. I really like the colors you used here...
