Historical women mash-up

My original intention was to be Jane Austen for Halloween, but the outfit ended up being a little too Renaissance. So my outfit for Halloween became a homage to not only Jane Austen but Christine de Pizan, as well. She is an author who challenged misogyny early in the game and who happened to be depicted in medieval artwork as wearing a dress similiar to mine. So there you have it!

I got this coat from a vintage store in Staunton that very sadly went out of business. I was with my best friend downtown when I was 14 and had forgotten a coat for the freezing weather, so I popped in there and found this cute one for $9. Score. It's been a favorite for 5 years since.
