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.

Bulgarian Ottoman Styled Robe
From the seller:
Ladies and Gentlemen, we are pleased to offer this week,
a scarce antique c.1880`s ethnic Bulgarian ladies' folk costume dress from the Kjustendil region. Wonderful gold & silver metallic threads and colorful tones embroidery.
Very good condition. Comes from a smoke-free and pet-free collection.
Measures: 44"length; 15"from shoulder seam to shoulder seam; 20"armpit to armpit
From Me:
Based on the neckline, I'd say it's older than 1880's but I know that some places were still wearing the older style.
