This review is from: Victorian Fashion Designs CD-ROM and Book (Dover Full-Color Electronic Design) (Paperback)

This comes in a large "paper-doll' size book. The images from from 1836 to 1900, they are gorgeous full colour depictions of Worth gowns, riding habits, bathing suits, men, women and children. This image are HUGE, approximately 800x1500 pixels is average size, in TIF format, perfect for web designs or for use in more personal graphics just as a web page or "siggies".

There is a detailed description of each costume 110 to be exact, and all are open CD ROM, too, so no bother with scanning them. They are Permission free use, so there is no limit but you imagination and you talent.

Great for web designers, graphics mavens, and even more useful for historical writers. Worth every penny.
