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.

Late 1890's Colorful Bodice
From the seller:
Wow what a bodice this is!!! Designer is : J. Willets of Brooklyn
Stunning condition! Even has extra fabric!!!! Make a hat! Measurements are 22 inch waist 32/33 inch bust
From Me:
I had to post this. I know a lot of you are looking for colorful clothing from the Turn of the Century. I think this qualifies easily. ;-) It's most likely from about 1897.
