Odd how such rules came about .

I meant to write "ring banded skirts" which may not be any better, but I couldn't come up with a clear term.

But when you said "fringed skirts" I kind of balked. I can't remember what the term would be to describe gathered skirts with different bands or tiers of gathering (which I made for myself several times in Home Ec classes). But I don't remember hearing them described as "fringed." Anyone else that could help would be appreciated.Barbara Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351113054045427775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447020772809150478.post-5469129970572835562018-07-21T20:25:26.459-04:002018-07-21T20:25:26.459-04:00Quite a selection of interesting hats and costumes...Quite a selection of interesting hats and costumes. Some of the women's outfits appear to be folkloric -- such as the embroidered vests or the aprons worn by the Swabian band posted below them -- perhaps characteristic of the area they hailed from. As fascinating as the hats are the arrangement of instruments at the center of many of these photos. That appears to have been the style of band studio photos -- perhaps to be sure all instruments were represented.Molly's Canopyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01571003887840906315noreply@blogger.com
