Symposium Session – Hooking Up & Hanging Out in the Victorian Era: Victorian Courtship
Hooking Up & Hanging Out in the Victorian Era: Victorian Courtship
Presented by Edwina Tweed-Sarchovsky & Grigor Sarchovsky
You see someone you fancy – what do you do now? You can’t just get her digits – the telephone hadn’t been invented yet. We’ll take you through the delicate dance of wooing at the turn of the century: from fan flirting to ‘calling’ to what brides were told about the wedding night.
Speakers:
Edwina Tweed-Sarchovsky has been a Steampunk enthusiast for five years and a costumer for over three decades. Having switched tracks to more historical costuming has led to much research and a fascination with not only the outerwear, but what’s worn underneath as well as accessories, hairstyles and customs of the era.
Grigor Sarchovsky is an expert at the Art of Woo and all things Romantical
