We are an authorized, direct-from-the-publisher retailer of NEW books. Our titles are ON HAND and available for immediate shipping. Some 100 full-color illustrations of outfits by Worth, Paquin, Dolly Varden, Revillon, and other noted designers span 65 years of fashion history: lace-trimmed wedding dress, resort wear, formal riding attire, and more for women; plaid trousers, frock coats, ruffled shirts, other apparel for men; top hats, walking sticks, bonnets, parasols, and additional period accessories. Meticulously rendered, permission-free images for artists and craftworkers. This book could be of value in several respects. It clearly identifies (in color) an accurate representation of each example of Victorian clothing. These are shown as copyright free examples. This would be an excellent help for someone seeking to correctly identify estate sale clothing. Likewise, it could also be used by clothing designers and artists in order to plausibly re-create an accurate portrayal of clothing during this time period. Examples include velvet cloaks, afternoon dresses, tail coats and trowsers, silk wedding gowns, walking dresses, formal wear, evening gown and bodice, and much much more.
