Jilli, as someone in Aimee's building, you can have Gene Wilder, but if Depp shows up, there ain't no freaking way.
Sorry.

Fine. If it is Depp, can you at least send me the hat, frock coat, and walking stick?
I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think you should take all his clothes.

I won't enter into a screaming fingernail fight with Jilli (I'll lose, BTW, but I'll give it a damn good try) over Depp's frock coat. She's still a little sore over the one I got off the wall at Fritzi Ritzi years and years ago that fits me but not her because I don't have her bust.
(In reality, it's a Christian school-uniform overcoat for a teenaged girl, circa 1960. The shoulders are a bit narrow, but I'm Edwardian in shape (i.e. asthmatic and scrawny), the sleeves are precisely the right length, and the hem hits me in the back of the knees. It's absolutely perfect, and Jilli almost killed me at the store.)
I'm hideously jealous, however - men's fashions tend to be so bland, while women get to wear corsets and huge hats and gorgeous dresses.
I don't do drag, so cross-dressing doesn't appeal...but I wish men had fabulous men's clothing comparable to Victoriana.

Yes, I still sulk about that occasionally.

Yes, but if Alex wears Victorian uniforms, then his Evil Overlord Complex kicks in, and he starts ordering everyone to make Infernal Devices. Which is difficult when he won't let you near the sharp objects.

Well, there's 18th Century men's fashions ... silks, velvets, damasks, with cascades of lace.

Mostly lurking...
I just bought beautiful purple fabric to make Roman shades for the three windows in our living room. It's not what I really wanted, but it's what I could afford; and it is still lovely. The very helpful woman at the fabric shop talked me into Roman shades rather than tabbed curtains. I think I'm going to like them much better. They may be a little more difficult to make, but I think worth it in the end.
