to want to go back 100 years and ask lady Mary if I can borrow some of her clothes

I’m rewatching the whole of Downton abbey before the film comes out on dvd and I’d forgotten how amazing some of lady Mary’s clothes were.

I think the key is, having 'staff' to look after them and lay them out for you, not having to worry about not damaging them in the wash, etc
