All The Pretty Dresses

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 Edwardian Summer Dress

From the seller:

A romantic1900 Edwardian white tea dress. The dress is lavishly decorated with eyelet trim, embroidered flowers and vines and inserts of Cluny lace. The bodice has a high neck insert made of Cluny lace. The lace is laid over net lace. The sleeves, front panel and lower edge of the skirt are all trimmed in this manner. The dress is unlined and has a back button closure. It is in excellent and wearable condition. There are no holes, no underarm discoloration and no age spotting. It would make a wonderful wedding dress. Bust 34 Waist 26 Hips 36 Skirt length 41.

From Me:

Probably about 1908 or so.
