Anyone know anything about these gothic legs? (The ones on the right,,) Are they a reproduction? If so are they based on an other pair? Anyone have any other pix of them..?

I don't know about that particular suit, but the design is very much like the "Siggy" harness, the one on the bottom here:

Which shows that, even if it turns out that the suit is a repro and not an antique, the design still captures the right look.[/url]

This forum is worth its weight in gold. Hmm..nice pix indeed, but still not the ones i think..it is specifically the area of the thigh, the flutings that im interested in.
