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.

Natural Form Era Red Velvet Coat
From the seller:
A rich 1870’s dark red plush velvet bustled coat. The coat has dolman styled sleeves and is full length. It has a front hook and eye closure and is lined with a floral printed silk. The velvet fabric is in excellent condition. There is no discoloration just shadows created by the camera flash. There is wear and some splitting to the silk fabric on the neckline, shoulders and front opening. The coat is being displayed over a bustle cage that is not included. Shoulders 14 Bust 30 Waist 30 Length from shoulder to hem 55. Antique clothing is for display and should not be worn.
From Me:
This is one of those cases where I love the lining fabric more than the actual outfit fabric.
