Cary Santiago - TernoCon 2018 

In the Philippines, “terno” refers to a woman’s ensemble that consists of matching colors/patterns. … By the late 1940s, the terno’s meaning and silhouette evolved into any Western dress with butterfly sleeves attached to it.

Snow White in the woods. I can’t decide about the tippets (those weird streamers on her arms). Tippets were a kind of medieval fashion accessory from around the mid 1300s. I thought they’d look kinda fun with her red dress, although I now realize they should have been positioned lower – just above the elbows. Oops. Anyway my problem with them is that for historical accuracy they should be white, but I reeeeeally want to paint them a darker colour. I’m still on the fence. Right now it looks like she’s got toilet paper hanging from her arms.

Iron Tiaras

Iron jewelry, also called Berlin Ironwork jewelry because it was primarily made in Berlin, was popular in the early 1800s.  It came to prominence during the Napoleonic Wars when the Prussian Royal Family asked citizens to donate their gold and silver to fund the war effort.  People would turn in their gold jewelry and receive iron jewelry in return which would typically be inscribed with Gold gab ich für Eisen/I Gave Gold for Iron or Für das Wohl des Vaterlands/For the Good of the Fatherland.  Since it was black in color from the linseed oil or lacquer coating it could be used for mourning but was more frequently used as a way for people to show their patriotism and resistance to Napoleon.  The designs followed other jewelry trends at the time like cameos and naturalistic elements.  The style spread to other countries and remained popular until the mid-1800s.  Because of the brittle, rust prone nature of iron few examples survive today.
