Does this even count as lolita? I dunno, lolita clothing is always so cute...these clothes are beautiful.
Also, don't forget the Deadwood stereotype about frontier women; HOORS. haha.
I recently bought a discard book from the library...I think it's Time Life's book called The Women, which is basically a ton of accounts and photographs of women who were moving out west. It's just as you say. Good, honest women, smudged faces and practical clothing, setting a formal dinner down on a shipping crate or something so her husband could have a decent meal along the Oregon trail. Hee! I like it.
To make an essay out of a comment, I'd say people are more into steampunk because it's FUTURE-Y! In the past! Haha. Even though it's really old fashioned too. I've decided I like Candyfuture, which I've been reading about on Doe Deere's blogazine...it's shiny and pastel and has rocketships and unicorns. :D
