I need to learn how to sew
Because I'm not optimistic about the chances of finding Elegant Gothic Aristocrat/steampunk/pseudo-Victorian stuff in my size at a local thrift shop - even if one expands the definition of "local" to include the higher-end ones in Seattle - and under my current financial circumstances I can't really justify spending a hundred dollars for a dress, but - so pretty! I want to run around dressed like a steampunk adventuress, damme! So it seems that, in the absence of my personal economy receiving a great upturn, my best bet is to learn how to make my own darn promenade dresses. (Maybe I should switch to Elegant Byzantine Aristocrat - the clothes back then seemed to have much simpler basic structure.)
