I browse through the available dresses. This is one aspect of being here that I won't mind. I love clothing of this period. It is so elegant. There are only a couple to look at. One is a baby blue and the other is a vibrant green. This green dress is beautiful. I hold it up in admiration. I put it next to me. I smile as it seems like it will fit. " If you gentleman will turn away for a moment. I want to try this dress on. " Edited: Kyrroeth on 19th Apr, 2017 - 3:26pm
"Of course" I turn my back on her, and start studying the make of the clothing I have selected. I can already tell I am going to miss modern textiles.
Unbuttoning my work shirt, I take it off, and quickly slip the tunic over my head. Never did like undressing with others about. Hmm, a little tight about the shoulders, but it could work.
Thrum will help Jason with his shirt to take out some of the stitching to make it fit better in the shoulder. He will look over at Rachel and tell her the green would look very good on her but he can bring out some other colors if she has a preference.
As they turn around I strip off my shorts and tank top. I pull the dress down over my head and wiggle into it. The dress isn't as soft as what I'm used to but it is beautiful. It fits well except it is tight on my chest. I spin around loving the dress. It goes down to my ankles and has green sleeves as well. "This isn't bad all things considered. It's not like we are in Macy's or something.Now I do feel like I'm at a RenFaire. " Edited: Kyrroeth on 19th Apr, 2017 - 4:31pm
"My thanks, Thrum was it? I'll be sure to call on you when it is time to purchase more outfits."
Awkwardly, I slip on the trousers as well, surprisingly these fit just fine. Putting my boots back on afterwards, I muse about how odd that mix might look, but I'm not giving up on good footwear any time soon.
"Agreed Rachel, this reception is considerably better than I'd expected. We stand a real chance here."
Thrum smiles and heads over to Rachel he starts at her chest and begins to adjust the fit so that the dress fits her almost like a glove. Letting it out here and there and taking it in below the bust line and making her waist look nice. He does ask her if she wants the skirt part divided for horse riding? He takes a tape out and starts taking her and then Jason's and Dennis's measurements to tailor make them nice fitting clothes. Once he is done you will find your clothes fit comfortably while being well fitted not tight but not loose. This takes about two hours of time and when you three step out of the shop you feel better with nice period fitting clothing.
I look over at her once it is clearly safe to do so, "I don't know if you know anything about riding horses, but I suspect you'll need to learn soon enough. Having at least one dress divided for riding would be a good idea Rachel. Sitting properly in a standard dress would be awkward and uncomfortable, and I wouldn't recommend riding sidesaddle, not if you want to actually travel somewhere."

I nod. " I used to ride some where I grew up in Texas. That will come in handy here. " I look to Throm. " Yes, will you please divide the skirts? Practicality is very important now. " Studying Jason's outfit I grin. " You have the same issue I will. It looks great but the shoes… At least my Saloman's are green and the dress is long. I'm sure we won't see shoes like we have now anytime soon. " Edited: Kyrroeth on 19th Apr, 2017 - 5:14pm
