Light on their toes!!! Excellent!! Heavy eye make-up is a grave no-no here!! And a touch of pastel ribbon w/ tiny flowers in the hair, please! The skirts are just a bit long... lets see the fine silken slippers w/ big pretty bows and those lace petticoats/pantaloons!! Great dancing!!
@brv1848 I'm not a fashion maven, but do realize that Handel was a major figure of Baroque music, and was still alive in the middle of the 18th century. Did clothing change that much from early 18th to mid-18th century? It looks "right" for a Handel period piece.
@brv1848 Handel was born in 1685 and died in 1759. Fashions changed dramatically in between, from wigs to the shoes. The clothes in this video are derived from the 1750's, and Handel wrote Wassermusik in 1717 - a time when Baroque in *music* was still the mode, but definitely not Baroque in *clothing fashion*. Handel was also popular throughout much of the century up until 1770, about. So I think it is safe to say this might have been danced the year he died, in fashions as per 1750.
Wow, so elegant!

I used to have one of those dresses but I had to sell it because I was baroque and needed the cash.

@brv1848 The Baroque period is from 1600-1750. The music was still being played well after 1750 but was considered a little out of style by 1780.
