Surely Dracy wouldn’t know her with almost every inch concealed. It hadn’t been easy to design a costume portraying the dove of peace that was comfortable, flattering, and could be made rapidly, but they’d achieved it, and at very little cost. The headdress had been the most work, but it perfectly resembled a dove’s head, with the beak projecting above her nose. The feathers fed down the back of her head to blend with her hair, which fell loose to her waist and was powdered white. It had been ...Jane’s genius to point out that real doves’ feathers would be too small to be in scale, as well as being too hard to find in quantity. The solution had been white goose feathers, which continued down the flowing back of the gown to end as the fan of a dove’s tail. At the front Georgia had wanted to wear a classical robe, but Jane had argued in favor of decent convention, so she wore stays under a high-necked gown of white silk. She wore no hoops and only a roll at her hips to spread the skirt a little.
