2/ The kilt & tartan were representations of loyalty to the Jacobite cause & Bonnie Prince Charlie, making them politically charged and treasonous. Following the Battle of Culloden in 1746, the Dress Act forbade men and boys from wearing ‘Highland Dress’ in Scotland. #18thc
1/ Did the masquerade ever get ‘too political’? It’s a tricky question. Because the answer is yes and no. Dressing as ‘a Highlander’ was one of the more contentious choices of masquerade costume—especially during the 1740s. #18thc #Culloden #GeorgianMasquerade

Guys. What do we think is happening here? Is this gaggle of masquerades gambling? Does the unmasked man on the floor have a basket of treats? Has he spilled something that was part of his costume? Let me know what you think! #18thc #masquerade

1/ Happy Easter Masquerade Monday! After a long intervention from Lent (or so says nineteenth-century Britain), we’re back in action. Up through the 1840s, Lent was often bookended by masquerades. #MasqueradeMondays #19thc #18thc #VictorianMasquerade
