Wow, that painting of Voltaire is really something. Guess you can never have too much floof...
Your shirt looks so cool, especially round the arm gatherings. I expect you have decided by now what you're doing for the collar and cuffs?
I tried just now to find some info about how detachable lace ruffles and collars actually worked, via search engine and YouTube, but didn't have much success. Having them attached via buttons sounds uncomfortable--you'd need a whole row of buttons around your wrists and neck. I guess they were tacked on, and then the sewing was unpicked when they needed to be separated to be washed?
