But, just how many people are going to 'get' it without me dragging the book around with me, I wonder? Even at, say, ConQuest? Especially as she's usually described as wearing tans.
On the other hand, I think I could make it out of silk (instead of the velvet it looks like) and add a white velvet, long overvest and have an outfit actually described in the book.... Hmmmmmm
