Book Description

Series: Dover Fashion and Costumes
Meticulously reproduced selection of pages from rare Sears catalogs chronicles what youngsters, ages 4 to 16, wore during the first half of the 20th century. Descriptive captions accompany more than 300 illustrations — from flattering dresses with plunging necklines to men's wide, hand-painted ties. A rich social document.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great source for historic clothing!, April 3, 2007

This review is from: Children's Fashions 1900-1950 As Pictured in Sears Catalogs (Dover Fashion and Costumes) (Paperback)
I've truly enjoyed this book as I'm in the process of writing my own novel and needed a good source for period clothing. This book gave me some great ideas on how styles were designed for one of America's most famous catalogs, Sears. Also has great pictures of hats/bonnets. What's even more fun is how much stylish clothing cost in those days! A definite recommendation!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Resource, June 30, 2009

This review is from: Children's Fashions 1900-1950 As Pictured in Sears Catalogs (Dover Fashion and Costumes) (Paperback)
Children's Fashions 1900 - 1950 is a great resource for the history of how clothing has changed in America during that 50 year period. It is valuable to me as a maker of doll clothing to get some ideas of period pieces for that time.
