Ladies' Undies through the Ages...

i just finished this set of Victorian-era style undies for my TAKARA Ah! My Goddess! "Belldandy" and, setting her beside both my TAKARA SAMURAI SPIRITS/SHODOWN "Nakoruru" and AZONE Chinese Fantasy "Maya"
it struck me how much their preferences in underpinnings reflect the general change that took place over the last 100+ years in terms of popular trends in ladies' undergarments.

from up to about the early-1900's or so, to about the 1930's/40's or so onward, to about the 1980's/1990's, -right before the modern penchant for Panty styles such as G-Strings and Boy Shorts seemingly took over-
it all seems historically represented right here in one image;

Your sewing is amazing as always! I am consistently impressed at how well you work with satin at such a small scale - it is such an annoying fabric.

it helps immeasurably to use FRAY CHECK along the edges. in fact, it can be a virtual requirement, at least at this scale...
