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.

1920's Beaded Pale Yellow Dress
From the seller:
Gorgeous, authentic 1920s flapper dress. This rare find is a perfect example of early 20s fashion. This dress has not been cleaned, the ivory colored chiffon is dry, with some underarm discoloration, but no rips or tears. There's a spot of discoloration on the right hip, above the the beading (see photo). The beading is largely intact, though some metal discs have come loose, the ones we have will be sent to you along with the dress.
Bust measures 46", waist measures 46", and hips measure 48".
From Me:
Very Grecian in influence.
