Dress Up and Play

Found

I found this great set of photos at the Ft. Greene Flea Market today! I am so enthralled with them. Only I have no idea what date they're from. Anyone any idea?

UPDATE: I showed these pics to my costume supervisor and some other talented young ladies and they suspect these photos of western girls in Kimono are from the very late 1880s. Major clues: the bangs popular at that time period, as well as the corseted figures underneath. They see a very high bust line which is in keeping of the corset popular at the time. Thanks ladies!

British Vogue shoot in Mumbai

Below is a shoot from September British Vogue shot in India. The best part is the Art Direction and the 'extras' in the background.

Most of the turbans I've seen in real life are flat wraped against the head, but these ones below have a twist in them, which makes me wonder how many different techniques there are to wrap a turban and if they have names. Anybody know? How great is the guy's facial hair on the left?

I'm in love with this pink cart with the flowers on it...:

....and these purple doors...:

...and this guy's flower turban...:

and a whole lotta pompoms.:
