Downton Abbey, 2010
No doubt our hobby of historical costuming follows trends, and usually it is very influenced by what period films have or will be coming out. For awhile it was medieval, then it was pirates, followed by Steampunk. Elizabethan was big when Elizabeth came out, then the Civil War, with Cold Mountain, and let's not forget the 18th century, with Marie AntoinetteAmerican Duchess Historic Shoes Blog, and even moreso with The DuchessAmerican Duchess Historic Shoes Blog, and one might even argue that never did it leave us since the '80s, and Dangerous LiaisonsAmerican Duchess Historic Shoes Blog.

So what's next? Is there even a next? It seems there's quite a lot of hype surrounding Downton Abbey, and I admit I now *really* want to make some 19teens clothes. And the beautiful 1930s clothes from The King's SpeechAmerican Duchess Historic Shoes Blog were oh so tantalizing, do you think? We also have films coming up - Jane Eyre, for example, may have us all foaming at the mouth for the 1840s.
