I've stated before that I love studying costumes. One of my dream jobs is to work as a costume designer for historical and fantasy movies. That will likely never happen, but I love designing costumes for paper dolls and the many stories I write.
Jolene's wardrobe was born when I was experimenting with medieval-style costumes for one of the countries in my medieval fantasy world of Quivira. I really liked a few medieval dresses with various corset styles that I had seen on Pinterest and began thinking about what it would be like to have an entire country dressed like that. Jolene's costumes are my answer to that thought.
