anonymous asked: downton abbey + favourite familial relationship?

daisy + mr. mason i think that's one reason why william married you, so that i wouldn't be alone with all my bairns gone. without you, i'd have no one to pray for. i think that william knew that. so will you be my daughter? let me take you into my heart?

“Harriet observed with irritation that most of them wore their caps badly, and one had had the folly to put on a pale lemon frock and muslin frills, which looked incongruous beneath a gown…. ‘At any rate, the women are no worse than the men. I once saw old Hammond walk in the Encaenia Procession in a Mus. Doc. gown, a grey flannel suit, brown boots and a blue spotted tie, and nobody said anything to him.”

It is true that women’s clothing, having a far greater range of color and cut, has a far greater likelihood of producing a disharmony than men’s clothing. It is also true that our standards for women’s dress is higher which may be simply oppressive or may be because that greater range can also produce extraordinary beauty when done right.

These quotations are about the character Harriet Vane was noticing in the novel Gaudy Night, a mystery written by Dorothy L. Sayers in 1936 about a mystery writer, Vane. Sayers had her writer visiting her old women’s college at Oxford University in England and noticing what people wore with their academic gowns and caps en route to special ceremonies. The book centers on the prankish harassment of women at the college and Vane’s attempt to identify the perpetrator while she ponders the marriage proposal of the amateur sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey and what it would mean for her life and her career.
