Who knows maybe Akina will reach Aichi’s level 😅? I mean his punch in the first episode is probably proves that he’s unironically stronger than magical girl Emi🤣. So, far Aichi remains the most busted.

La Mode illustrée, no. 17, 22 avril 1866, Paris. Toilettes de Mme Bréant-Castel, 58 bis. rue Ste. Anne. Ville de Paris / Bibliothèque Forney
Description de toilettes:
Robe de dessous en foulard bleu uni, ornée d'applications en taffetas bleu un peu plus foncé que le foulard, entièrement lisérées en taffetas blanc. Robe de dessus en même foulard, mais sans aucune garniture, fixée sur la robe de dessous par des pattes, ornée d'applications et de lisérés en taffetas; pardessus à manches pareil à la robe, avec applications pareilles à celles de la robe de dessous, mais en proportions moindres. Chapeau Lamballe en tulle blanc, avec ruches de tulle blanc, roses roses, et franges à grelots en perles blanches.
Robe de dessous en tarlatane blanche, garnie avec huit volants tuyautés, également en tarlatane blanche; ces huit volants garnissent tout le tour de la robe; ils sont complétés devant par des volants pareils atteignant la ceinture, et qui deviennent toujours plus courts, disposés qu'ils sont en tablier. Tunique de taffetas paille, découpée en feuilles pointues guère plus longues que des basques par devant, mais qui vont toujours s'allongeant sur les côtés et par derrière. Cette tunique est bordée avec un biais de même étoffe et une dentelle blanche ayant 15 centimètres de hauteur; mêmes dentelles, mais très-étroites, sur toutes les coutures séparant les feuilles; corsage décolleté et manches courtes pareilles à la tunique. Perles blanches dans les cheveux.
Underdress in plain blue foulard, adorned with applications in blue taffeta a little darker than the foulard, entirely trimmed in white taffeta. Overdress in the same foulard, but without any trimmings, attached to the underdress by tabs, adorned with taffeta appliqués and edging; overcoat with sleeves similar to the dress, with applications similar to those of the dress below, but in lesser proportions. Lamballe hat in white tulle, with ruches of white tulle, pink roses, and fringes with bells in white pearls.
Underdress in white tarlatan, trimmed with eight piped flounces, also in white tarlatan; these eight ruffles adorn the entire circumference of the dress; they are completed in front by similar flounces reaching the belt, and which become ever shorter, arranged as an apron. Straw taffeta tunic, cut in pointed leaves hardly longer than basques in front, but always lengthening on the sides and behind. This tunic is edged with a bias of the same fabric and a white lace having 15 centimeters in height; same laces, but very narrow, on all the seams separating the leaves; low-cut bodice and short tunic-like sleeves. White pearls in the hair.

The 1950s Overdress: Butterick 6307
This is another of the overdresses which became popular for a while during the 1950s. The one I made and blogged about earlier, was inspired by the re-issued Simplicity 8252 and featured a sheer overdress. I use a silk organza over  the Big Blooms print dress made from re-issued Butterick 6582 from 1960. A sheer is a great way to add only a bit of coverage and enjoy a lot of color play during the summer months. 
But when it is colder, a overdress of a weightier fabric is in order. This one goes over a classic 1950s silhouette with a fitted bodice and a flared skirt. The overdress works almost as a coat, as it has a belt, but it is otherwise completely open. This creates a kind of added hourglass emphasis to the silhouette, and an hourglass was one of the most popular looks in the 1950s.
And the overdress allows for color play as the lining of the overdress can match the dress as can the collar. You see here that they choose merely pink and black, but one could imagine a print for the dress or the lining and many ways in which you could work with color harmonies. This overdress also allows you to bring up a particularly flattering color near the face with its standing shawl collar.
As with any overdress, the charm of the dress is when the wearer moves. Every step of her legs reveals the dress fabric beneath, or in this case both the lining and the dress fabric are revealed with each step. Of course, then she has the option of doffing the overdress for dancing or if the weather requires it.
This pattern was re-issued in 1999, although copies can still be sold on the web. But I would also urge you to imagine how you could make an overdress out of a pattern you already have. After all, my silk organza overdress had merely a widened and lengthened skirt from the dress pattern and then a drafted pattern for the bodice. Once you realize you simply need to make it fit over the dress you want to wear it with, you will recognize lots of possibilities.
