Today I was browsing through #fashionPlates from the #1890s as one does, and I stumbled on this

https://libmma.contentdm.oclc.org/digital/collection/p15324coll12/id/8574/rec/8

(the linked plate has a depiction of a 1890s style dress in pale red fabric with blue/green/yellow lines forming *big* squares (~20 cm?); the skirt is typical for the era, the jacket has the expected big sleeves, plus a very triangular capelet and a skirt that reaches just past the hips and ends in two sharp points in the front. There is also a blue belt, and blue cuffs and collars. The model is also carrying a parasol that looks more like a pointy stick)

And now I can't stop thinking of that dress in grey/silvery lurex fabric, on a #1960s sci-fi spaceship.

If i didn't have more projects than time (many of which are also going to be used way more) I would consider doing this :D
