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.

Teens Era Tiered Floral Skirt

From the seller:

The sweetest antique Victorian three tiered skirt with a tiny pink and green rose print over a soft and a bit stretchy honeycomb net that is much nicer in person. The skirt has hook and eye closures in the back.

VINTAGE ~ ~ Victorian

LABEL ~~

FABRIC ~~ semi sheer linen with a mute rose print over a honeycomb net.

MEASUREMENTS ~ ~~ 42 1/2" length, 25" waist, 38" hip.

CONDITION ~ ~ Excellent antique condition. Much nicer in person.

From Me:

1913/1914. The tiered look was very popular in the teens era. I really like how the seller shows the underlayer of netting - useful if anyone would like to construct a similar garment.

The above fashion plate shows a similar skirt from Dec 1913.
