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.

1810's Regency Day Cap

From the seller:

A dainty early 1820’s embroidered muslin day cap. The front brim and back crown areas are embroidered with white leaves and swirls. The cap has muslin chin ties and a drawstring closure at the back neckline. The cap is in good and sturdy condition. There is one pencil tip size hole and some scattered age spotting.

From Me:

About a decade older than the seller believes, at least.
