[Sydney] Angus and Robertson [1962]. p.112 Sunday 28th December [1930] 64 degrees 57.5 minutes S. 145 degrees 50 minutes E. "Ship making good progress in clear water to the west; sea clam except for moderate northerly swell; wind light and veering through south to the west; sky clearing and air becoming cold and dry. Quite a large number of whales were observed and the sight of several birds picking at some offal on the surface is a likely indication that the whaler "Kosmos" is not far away. Ship's head was again put south when the 145th meridian was reached and a clear passage to the south now seems probably; a very sudden rise of 11/2 degrees C. in the temperature of the surface water was noticed during the morning watch. However at 1800 loose pack was again encountered and course was altered to the clearer water to the westward. A very beautiful sight was presented by a three-pinnacled berg at sunset 23.25 - sky almost perfectly clear with a pink glow on the horizon. Compasses are now erratic and very sluggish."

♛ Incredible deadstock and unworn early 1940s Royal Australian Navy sailor trousers. Since debuting this collection in spring of 2018, these trousers have shipped out across the globe to thrilled clients. The unsolicited Etsy reviews and client photos tell the tale...they are amazing. You'll get a rare pair of ca. WWII era trousers that will serve you for a lifetime with proper care. High quality, a classic look that never goes off fashion's radar. •deep, dark ink-blue unfaded color •pure wool twill from Australia, known for the finest wool in the world •ultra-high waist •iconic fall-front panel with buttons •lovely interior hidden pockets •classic wide legs •smart and stylish wartime beauty •reinforced and partly lined with the matching ticking/hickory stripe cotton fabric as shown Wonderful paired with a snug sweater, a cropped jacket, or a little tee-shirt. For the price you'd pay for a midrange pair of jeans, you get something that's high quality AND a historical collectible. Our shop partner acquired the ENTIRE time capsule collection, and we are the exclusive place to get them. Note: the pair shown are an EXAMPLE. Minor variations exist across the collection, such as presence or absence of interior or exterior labels. We have only have a scarce few with the novelty hangtag left as those have shipped to our early buyers. Some are dated inside (i.e. 1940, 1944, etc.) or have historic inked notations inside. A few have original prices, NOT what we paid for them. Important note: these were originally cis men's military-issued uniform pants. Some of the smaller trousers were altered in the 1960s/1970s by a surplus company, taken in through the existing rear seam to better suit cis women. That said, these uniform pieces were originally intended for the "typically male" body type. Very curvaceous figures should size up to fit their hips and booty, and then have the waist tailored down to suit. Note: the original sizes found on these trousers are often inaccurate. Disregard. We have carefully measured each pair and corrected sizing as needed. ♛Measurements READ CAREFULLY BEFORE ORDERING! Do ~NOT~ go by your natural waist size or your jeans size. Go by your HIGH waist measurement. Here is how to get your best fit. Note the extra long RISE of 16 1/2" -- that is the distance from the center crotch of pants measured straight up with a measuring tape to where the top rim of the trouser's waistband sits. Find this spot on yourself, bring the tape up 16 1/2", then use the tape to take the circumference of your body. That's your "high waist." Allow a little wiggle room for breathing and ease as these have very little give/stretch and you do not want a skin-tight waistband. In other words, many of us need to "size up" to fit the high-hitting waistband. Always double-check to make sure the hips on your corresponding high waist size will fit you. The hips would be difficult to alter to make them larger, so if you need more room it's better to order a larger waist size and then have this waist tailored to fit you. If you need a longer inseam piece, be sure to order one marked LONG in the menu. They have less than 1" additional hem allowance. There are no returns, exchanges, or cancellations on these, including for size issues. If you have additional questions let's address these before you purchase. We've helped hundreds of folks find the right pair. All measurements are approximate, rim to rim, with the waistband held firmly flat, tight, and taut: RARE Size 25 - only one avail!

A small handful have some inconsequential sign of their age (e.g. a small moth hole or two from storage, generally on the cuff or edge and easy to darn or ignore). We make every effort to cull out unwearable pieces with blatant imperfections, but do keep in mind their age and material...WWII and woolen pieces this old are rarely if ever "perfect." They've been carefully stored for decades. We lint roll, then package for protection. Dry cleaning or hand-washing in Woolite or similar recommended. As mentioned, some of the smaller-waisted trousers were altered by a secondary surplus company 40-50 years ago, taken in through the rear waist to better fit smaller women. Please remember and respect the fact that these WWII uniform pieces are now around 80 years old, so the thread holding the buttons on is also exactly that old. Consider reinforcing this old thread so you don't lose any of the cool original buttons. Buttonholes and fabric will grow less stiff with use, much like breaking in a new pair of jeans. To keep pricing down and the process straightforward on this high demand item in our shop, these are sold as-is with no warranties. They are priced well below what we might ask for a pair of unworn 1940s WWII trousers. The bank of unsolicited reviews and client photos on Etsy will give you a great idea of the quality of our military collection. It's truly like nothing you can find on the racks today. Once they're gone from our shop, they're gone forever! •••••• Our pieces are true vintage with a history and a past life, not newly made reproductions. Please be familiar with vintage clothing and read over our shop policies before purchasing. We are happy to answer any questions you might have to help you with online purchasing.

Fitting First Our customer Amy commissioned us to design & create her Princess Serenity Inspired Bridal Gown for her Wedding Day. Before we added any of the details to the top of her gown we wanted to make sure the fit was perfect. She drove all the way from San Francisco to LA with her mom for her fitting! We sketched the design for the bodice and mapped out where each bead would be sewn. After drafting the applique pattern it was drawn on silk organza for the tambour frame. The color story of her gown is ivory, warm silver, milky pearl, and champagne gold. If you’re a big Sailor Moon fan you probably already know that Princess Serenity’s dress is inspired by the “Palladium Gown” in Christian Dior’s, Haute Couture Spring/Summer 1992 collection. In our rendition, we pulled from all our favorite parts of the Sailor Moon lexicon. The classic 90’s anime, the new Sailor Moon: Crystal anime, the manga, and a little Greek classical architecture. Over 170 hours of beading work went into the appliques for the top of the gown. We incorporated the design of her crown with the pink heart gem to the underbust. After the appliques were completed they were cut from the tambour frame, set with fabric glue then hand-stitched to the dress. The larger pearls were then stitched between the appliques. The long U shapes on the bust are from the 2014 Sailor Moon: Crystal anime, I feel like they really lengthen the torso. Right above the skirt, we created a padded belt with angled beadwork similar to the design on Dior’s Palladium Gown. It’s also made of the same gold material as the cape to tie it back into the overall design. The butterfly bow trails at the back with long cascading ribbons like the manga. Her high-low overskirt and underskirt have a lettuce hem like the 90’s anime. Serenity wears off-the-shoulder sleeves and sometimes a cape. Combining those elements we created shoulder armor, connected with pearls and crescent moon details. We gave the metal shoulder armor an iridescent moon glow by painting them with FolkArt Dragonfly Glaze Paint. Her cape is made of gold liquid chiffon, it looks like a fabric from the moon kingdom! The anthacus leaf decorates her shoulder armor just like the capital of an ancient Greek column. The Big Day! Amy shared her beautiful wedding photos with us looking like absolute royalty! Congratulations to the Happy Newlyweds <3
