Review
"This spectacular reference would make a wonderful addition to the library of any serious period costumer." --Doll Costuming Magazine
Product Description
Patterns and instructions for women's fashions in the 1880s. Outer garments of all types (coats, jackets, sacks, oversacks, circulars, Talmas, surtouts and dolmans) plus skirts, dresses, and waists. Additional period fashion illustrations and etiquette of dress. In this book, Hecklinger's editions of "The Dress and Cloak Cutter" of 1880 and 1883 are combined. This new volume shows the rapid progression of fashion changes over nearly a decade (including the return of the bustle). Also included are notes on the status of women (and their emergence into the business world) and period etiquette. Included are additional period fashion illustrations and an extensive glossary of fashion terms as well as a section on the etiquette of dress, from a well-known etiquette book of the period. A valuable book for costumers, historians, museum curators and people interested in women's studies.
