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.

From Me:
Small announcement: I probably won't be able to update the rest of this week and a good chunk of next week. I'm moving my desk at work and studying for a very important upcoming Computer Certification. So, if I go silent, that's why. ;-)
This is actually and Edwardian slip, not Victorian. ....and it's definitely not a Tea Dress.
