German 18th century society. The site has very small pictures though so you can’t see much.

Here’s another site with more pictures from their events: 18tes jahrhundert.

French site with 18th century clothes. This site is so amazing. The photography is gorgeous and the outfits even more so. They don’t seem to be selling anything though.

EDIT: See the comment section for more information. Chenilles et papillons do take custom orders.
