Another year is already coming to a close!  I've been working on this guide to Edwardian lingerie on and off for several weeks, and have finally managed to pull it all together in one article. 

​So here is my detailed survey of Edwardian lingerie -- what to wear and how to wear it.  I hope it will answer all those questions about the unmentionables of this era, and be enjoyable too!  It's quite a long article, but you can scroll through to whatever most interests you (click on the title above, or on "Read More", to access the article).  By the way, you can find the 'History House' sewing patterns of a number of the items featured in this article at the link below.
