5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent reference,
By Kay Hudson (Seabrook, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Victorian Fashions and Costumes from Harper's Bazar, 1867-1898 (Dover Fashion and Costumes) (Paperback)
Extensive and detailed illustrations, with good captions (including dates), divided into four style periods (1867-1874, 1875-1882, 1883-1890, 1891-1898). Narrative introduction to each period gives the general style trends. Very useful: includes hairstyles, shoes, parasols, aprons, decorative details, children's clothing, etc.

This review is from: Victorian Fashions and Costumes from Harper's Bazar, 1867-1898 (Dover Fashion and Costumes) (Paperback)
this is such a beautifully illustrated work of the fashions of the period from 1867-1898. Fans of Victoriana must have this in their library. Excellent resource for antiques lovers, jewelry designers, artists, costume designers etc.
