@rosiehharte: John Singer Sargent’s Lady Macbeth wore a dress made of beetle wings! But why did the victorians love wearing bugs so much… #History #fashionhistory #johnsingersargent #ladymacbeth #victorianfashion #arthistory
You can still buy beetle wings for clothing & jewelry pretty easily

Honestly it’s really inspiring to see costumes of centuries past designed in a way I might today (with crochet and sewn on small shiny objects lol)

I know this might just be me having a pet peeve for correctness on bugs but those aren't the wings, those are the elytra (jewel beetle) and they're used to protect their actual wings, hope that helps

I did not know this but it makes so much sense. and I find the history of beading fascinating. wood, stone, bones etc
