I have seen many a Beltane where people bring out their more "fun" garb.ï¿½ But that does not mean that the garb is not historically accurate.ï¿½ Take Anya's "Moo-dor" dress as an example.ï¿½ Her dress is cowprint, yet it is a historically correct Tudor dress.ï¿½ Also, the use of animal prints can be documented during the 15th and 16th century.  

  So, you can be historically correct and a bit "outlandish" at the same time.ï¿½ :)

  I believe that one should not wear the "fantasy" or "rennie" outfits (no glittery flourescent taffeta puh-leeze!), however one should be allowed to have a bit of fun in their garb selection at Beltane.
