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.

Turn of the Century Frothy Outfit
From the seller:
a dress that we just got from an attic very old and needs cleaning, the woman or girl who owned it must have been very small, it seems to be in really good condition for its age
From Me:
It looks like it's early Edwardian. Unfortunately, there really isn't any more information that what I show above. I do love the stripy ruffles on the skirt.
