Sweetie. Honey. Sweet summer child, you guileless little future suckling piglet of capitalism - there is no ethical way to find a full Edwardian style ensemble for CHEAP jesus fuck sometimes I forget that most people have no idea how long it takes to actually make anything!

@sinituulia I can think of a way to get a full Edwardian style ensemble for cheap, but then it requires something between time and a frigging lot of time, depending on the skills and tools one already has.
It also depends on the availability of cheap, but still 100% natural fibers, sheets and curtains in the thrift stores in your area.

@valhalla This person was definitely talking about paying a maximum of not very much for an entirely bought thing already made, though... Otherwise they'd have talked about finding materials or patterns!

@sinituulia I suspected something like that
but now I sort-of want to try and make some back-of-envelope calculation on how cheap you can get by handsewing thrifted materials with gratis patterns from the internet
(the frigging lot of time option
)
