I know nothing about men's fashions of the period, but a little about women's (dating from a penchant for 19th century British women's history in college). I saw several women wearing gowns that struck me as period appropriate but not place appropriate -- mainly in ballgowns walking down the "street". You, on the other hand, I thought looked wonderful and realistic!

We only saw the end of a show at the V&A -- mainly the end where they sung "Rule Brittania." My own favorite parts of the day were the street theatre (especially the "Six-Foot Congolese Banana Slug"), "Tobias the Adequate", and the very risque version of "The 12 Days of Christmas" put on by the girls at Mad Sal's. (The smaller ones just looked bored through it, but James's jaw dropped almost to the floor :D )
