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 Teens/Early 20's Summer Dress
From the seller:
Antique Victorian Lawn Dress
In good condition
Pc does show a couple pink stains, or marks, I did not try to remove them as I id not want to damage it
It does have a VERY small tear at the hip,(Pictured)
Pc may be a bit fragile, I am not an expert
I do believe it is a nice collectable, Display pc
measurements
18in underarm to underarm across chest
20in at hip seam side to side
44in back of neck to hem
Overall it is in good condition
Rare Estate Find
From Me:
Clearly, not Victorian. I'd like to put this around 1920, give or take 2 years, but I'm siding on the 1920's side, rather than the Late Teens side. There were more pictures but the seller deleted them immediately after the auction ended. *sad face*
