Don't speak, Tom. Your lungs might be collapsed.

Jesus, there are things that come out of the woods at night to hunt us. We need to be finding every advantage we possibly can. I'm sorry if my timing was inappropriate.

Jade and I, we have memories that Miranda didn't have. She tried, Victor. She tried so hard. I know because I feel what she felt. I know how much she loved you. I know how badly she wanted to take you home. She just didn't have the answers she needed. But I do. I have them because of her. She's the one who led me to the tower, to your father. She's the reason why you get to go home. What? I don't think I came back here just to free the children.

This post will delve into what women of the early 18th century would have been wearing and compare that to the costumes worn by many of the women in Black Sails. We’ll look at Max’s costumes once she becomes a madame, Eleanor’s costumes in season 3 onwards, Miranda Barlow/Hamilton’s costumes in both Nassau and London, plus some costumes of minor characters (Mrs Hudson, Abigail Ashe, and Madame Guthrie).

Only two women are truly considered pirates in the show (not counting Mary Read, who shows up at the end and only wears male clothing), and yet between them there’s quite a bit to delve into with the costuming. Like the costumes of the prostitutes, the costumes of the pirates are completely made up and historically inaccurate. So without further ado, let’s delve into Eleanor Guthrie and Anne Bonny’s costumes.
