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.

Spats!!!!

From the seller:

Victorian Ladies Black / Tan Cotton Spats Label - Burt's Boot Top

Please Scroll Down For More Photos and Description

This cute pair of Victorian spats are made from light tan cotton twil and trimmed with black braiding and have black buttons. There's a leather strap under the foot that buckles on the side. The twill pulled loose from the braid trim around the ankle for about 1/2 inch and there's stains that show in the photos. There's a label from Burt's Boot Top. They measure 9 inches around the top and ankle is 8 inches.

From Me:

From the Vancouver Daily World Nov 29, 1916. :-D
