Clothes in Books is about to take a small holiday – so no
more blogposts for the next 10 days or so.
And this last one is something different…
In a recent comment on this book:
Someone
from the Past by Margot Bennett
staunch reader Christine Harding said this: talking of under garments, what happened to the regular posts you used to do on what goes on beneath the clothes we see?
My reply: I think those posts -
they were called Dress Down Sunday - came to a natural end, but how nice that
you remember them, and I did very much enjoy doing them. And, I recently was
looking at my huge and unwieldy file system for CiB, and came across the folder
containing collected pictures for Dress Down Sunday, ones I had come across and
saved without a specific purpose in mind. I'd forgotten I had them, and was
delighted to rediscover them! Now I need to find the books to match up with them...
I should have guessed what would come next…

Perhaps you could post a few and let your legion of fans suggest books they
relate to?
Christine H again
I’m with Susan D on
this - you post the pictures, and I’m sure your readers can fit them to books
and characters!
Well I love a challenge to me nearly as much as a challenge
to the reader (which is common in Golden age fiction, but not quite the same
thing)
So here are a few lovely pictures from the Clothes in Books
lingerie collection. If you have some great ideas for books to feature them,
please put them in the comments below. When I get back from my holiday I will
have all these ideas ready for me…
[This is by no means all of them: there is material for several posts]
