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.

This just looks fun to wear
From the seller:
A charming 1912 Edwardian Arts and Craft dress from a CT. estate. The name of the original owner will be provided to the winning bidder. The dress is made of gray silk crepe fabric and lavishly embroidered with black flowers and lines. The waist has a wide peplum that is trimmed with black crocheted balls. The dress is unlined and has a front and side snap closure. The dress has not been cleaned so there is some age discoloration, very light underarm discoloration and discoloration and fading on the sleeves. There are no holes. Bust 36 Waist 28 Skirt length 37.
From Me:
I love this seller and I love this dress.
