Edwardian Era Motoring Outfits

I love wearing costumes! Costumes allow you to be anything you can imagine, if only for just a while. Each year our dear friends hold a Halloween party, and everyone who attends tries to create a costume that others will talk about.
I have made many costumes for these parties over the past 20 years. We have been the Munsters, a 1700's Scottish couple, Greek gods, Rhett and Scarlett, Vikings, and many others. 
This year, in honor of my husband's love of old automobiles, I made Edwardian Era driving outfits.
I am very proud of how they turned out. They are very authentic and I can just picture us motoring down a dirt road in a "Tin Lizzy".
It took me 4 weeks, 4 denim needles, 12 yards of cotton duck fabric, and 10 yards of trim to create these.
I also spilled blood for these, as sewing buttons on this heavy weight fabric caused me to jab my fingers many times as I worked on these. 
The hats were my first attempt at head wear, and 
they turned out pretty well. The flowers on the woman's hat came from Goodwill.
Anyway, here are some detail photos of the outfits. I hope you enjoy.
