gwendolyngreyI was browsing around etsy tonight when I stumbled across a seller that instantly caught my eye.
She was selling a "Custom Civil War" dress... but the image was of the picture from a Simplicity pattern. I couple more popped up, different Simplicity patterns, all 'available in color of your choice' and claimed as custom.
This one, however, made me angry.

It's![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
koshka_the_cat's 1862 mourning-for-Prince-Albert ballgown. It's a picture of her, with her head cut off, and is labeled as "Civil War Ball Gown Satin Victorian Dress Gown Custom Made" I thought of firing off an email to the seller right away, but it's really late and I'm sure I wouldn't say the right thing.
I just thought Katherine ought to know. There are pictures of other people's dresses too, but I unfortunately don't recognize them.
