Comfort is the name of the game lads! There is nothing more comforting than a rainy afternoon indoors with a nice glass of sherry, your favorite tracks playing on the trusty gramophone and a blazing fire to warm your bones. At least that’s what T and Lovia think.

Callot Soeurs (Callot sisters) was a leading Paris fashion design house from 1895 through the 1920s. The fashion house was operated by the sisters Regina, Marie, Marthe and Joséphine Callot.
They were taught by their mother, a lacemaker. The eldest sister, Marie was a trained dressmaker. The sisters started out embellishing lingerie and blouses with antique ribbon and lace. The enterprise quickly took a turn for success as the sisters began creating their own dress designs.

my favourite historical era to daydream about is that span of a few decades between 1890 and 1914ish. late victorian, fin de siècle, edwardian. there’s just something so exciting about it. the world on the brink of radical change, of catastrophe and decimation but they don’t know that for now, the twentieth century hasn’t been inaugurated as the bloodiest quite yet, all that looms ahead is a boundless bouquet of potential, invention, adventure. a turning point in time. spiritualism and the hereafter are in the air all clashing and collaborating and cooperating with rationality and progress and scientific advancement, technology and faith, mysticism and machines, the arts marching on into modernism and abstraction but not quite yet; there’s a future on your doorstep, the air is full of love and precognition and imagination. get out there in your hot air balloon and watch the world turn on its axis, holding its breath
also the fashion’s pretty cool

so a fun fact

beka, despite her rebel behavior, is a big manners girl. she knows how to be a "sophisticated young lady" and usually speaks with great big words. her manners and such come from lessons of her old mother.
the only thing that gives away her young lady form is her laugh X)

John Sloan - Gertrude S. Drick "Woe" (1917)
Rowland Elzea writes, "Gertrude Drick (Smith) was a genuine Greenwich Village character. The story of her engineering the Declaration of Independence of Greenwich Village in 1917 in order to appeal to President Wilson for protection as a small nation, which Sloan memorialized in his etching Arch Conspirators, has been told in a number of places…Gertrude, who had been Sloan's pupil at the Art Students League, wrote him in 1944, 'A letter, this morning, from Joe (my Aunt of whom you have heard me speak) says, this question and answer - What is said to be the most perfect hand ever painted? The right hand of Da Vinci's Mona Lisa. I would certainly change this, and say both hands of Gertrude painted by John Sloan!'" (John Sloan’s Oil Paintings: A Catalogue Raisonné, Part 1, Newark, Delaware, 1991, p. 213)
He continues, "In Gist of Art Sloan wrote of the subject of this very handsome portrait, 'Her visiting card was edged in heavy black and bore the single word 'woe.' She had a witty, quick intelligence and I believe she liked to do the unexpected, especially during the years she lived in Greenwich Village. A happy memory - here's luck to her.' The joke, of course, was that when questioned about her card, she would reply, 'Woe is me!'" (source)

AFTER 3 HOURS STRAIGHT OF DOING LINELESS ART.... IT IS DONE
I drew @noodle-persom 's Agent Phoenix design on call with them... and in exchange, they got an infodump on the history of suits over the decades.
this is like??? the 4th time I've done lineless art ever? So I'm pretty impressed with how it turned out, all things considered!
Bonus:

(and versions without the red border around Phoenix)
