What Halloween costume should I wear to my waitressing job that’s family friendly?
I work at a family friendly restaurant as a waitress. Tomorrow we can dress up in a Halloween costume on the conditions that it is family friendly/not slutty. All I have is a French maid costume which won't work obviously. What should I wear? And most importantly what kind of shoes am I going to wear? Usually I wear slip resistant shoes to work because if you don't you fall on your ass. What shoes am I going to wear and what kind of costume will be family friendly? Please help!

Can you get a period wedding dress? like regency or something?
I love watching period movies - can you get any of those olden day clothes from anywhere? especially as a wedding gown? They are sumptuous!
Try Angels in London, they do all those sorts of things, the place is massive, they have so much stuff and its either rentable or buyable.

Where can I find18th century (1700s) or regency (early 1800s) sewing patterns?
I've always loved period clothing, especially the mid 1700s and the regency period.
I'm looking toward accurate patterns that have all the pieces from the corsets, stays, and panniers; to the chemise, petticoats, and robes.
I don't mind either ordering from the internet or going to a particular store.
-If I have to order it, I'd prefer something close by since I'm in ON, Canada. I don't want to pay really right rates for shipping from the other side of the world.
-If it has to be a store it would be nice to have it somewhere within the Greater Toronto Area.
Thanks

"Jane Austen" dress anywhere?
It's my brothers wedding soon and I would really love a dress that is "Jane Austen" style. In other words, Regency Period gowns. I'm not sure where I would go about getting one, or indeed, if I have to have one made! Could anyone please help me?

If you are good at sewing, Wal_mart has those patterns, they are not too hard to sew.
Also this website has lots of it: http://www.regencyreproductions.com/regency_gown.htm
Some ebay seller has it too.
