In Victorian times, when women could not expose their ankles, some refused to say "table leg", and some went as far as to crochet covers for piano and table and chair legs.
I grew up during the "Summer of Love", myself...
Grand Papa's Sister has great pantaloons though she'd be horrified if she knew I was showing you. No one but her personal maid saw them.
Well, we will see what happens when she shows
up at the Christian Hacker house for a
visit...
Cheers CM

Wow! I never knew that! Piano and table...sticks maybe? lol
Really! "Legs" so suggestive! CM
Oh my! No lady would show even a glimpse of ankle. Grandpapa's sister must be horrified that all and sundry can see her bloomers. Lol
I love her elegant green dress. She must be quite the grand old dame. I hope she can help Grandmama with Grandpapa's temper and cheating at games. I can't wait to see what happens when she arrives.
Yes don't tell a soul! CM
What a beautiful doll!!! Her gown is such an interesting design and the fabric looks like silk? Her "legs" and her "unmentionables" are such great details! She does seem to be very sober.... I look forward to seeing more!
Seguro que será bien recibida en su visita,lleva un bonito vestido que además lo cubre todo!!!!
Besos.
