All The Pretty Dresses

This is a place for any extant garments in private collections from about 1941 back. There is no beginning date. The only rule is that it can't be currently in a museum and must be before the bombing of Pearl Harbor. I mostly post items I've seen on ebay, etsy, or other auction sites so we will continue to have a record of them for research purposes. If you have antique clothing in your collection, please, email me pictures of them and I will gladly add them to this site.

Cinnamon Quilted Petticoat

From the seller:

Lovely hard to find antique lightweight cinnamon wool heavily quilted ladies petticoat. Early 1850's or so. In nice sturdy displayable wearable condition. Knitted brown wool edging. Tie waist. Some splits to wool edging and a tear at seam at waist where it ties, see photo. Easy fix. Incredible quilting and beautiful color. Measures 26" waist, 46" hips and 37" long. All measurements are approixmate and taken with garment lying flat. Shown with a hoop not included. Enjoy!

From Me:

Like with the earlier petticoat I posted, this could be at least a decade older.
