Turn-of-the-Century Fashion Show

At the recent ANWA Writers Conference in Mesa, Arizona, I attended a gala event where the attendees were asked to dress like one of the characters in their books. Because "Hohenstein" is set in 1910, I found a skirt that fit that era, and I love it. I can't figure out, however, how the women in those days were able to move. I can only walk with small steps, have a hard time bending down, and definitely no crossing my legs. Check it out!
