Good, those are the ones I'm just getting to! Brothers In Arms is the latest I've read (discounting the frame story in my copy of Borders of Infinity). I bought the next four on Amazon last night in a deranged rush, because I am weak. (What I have heard about A Civil Campaign makes me want to read it excessively. I caved and read the scene in which Miles proposes at his disastrous dinner party on the Baen website, because I couldn't resist.)
Yay, new book! I have to admit, I don't love Ivan like I do lots of the other characters, but I may well grow to.
Your ability to recall detail is better than mine! I did think that perhaps the skirts weren't swirly enough to be Vor outfits, but hadn't really seen boleros as maids' wear. I like your take on Ezar. (I fail to see how a bolero would keep one warm, though. The sleeves are so short! Anyway, with the Residence burning down nobody needs extra layers.)

That tumblr is brilliant.
