Butterfly gown....gasp!
When you get to http://www.metmuseum.org/ The exibition is called American Women Fashioning a Nationas Identity. Also"their" zoom feature gets "really" close,
much better than this.
I have shown late 1800's today as their my favorite.
This wool sweater is from 1895! It works today!
I just thought I'd share a place to get lost this morning.

Wow, they are lovely! Luckily, I LIVE close enough to the Met that I can go visit it :) Didn't know that exhibit was going on...so thanks for the heads-up!
OOHHHH I just love the shoes, would love to wear them, and the sweater, too, what gorgeus pretty things to wear, they made back then.
Thanks for showing.

Great post. That sweater, like you said would work today, amazes me. Are we going back to the Victorian times? Hmmm. Diane
I missed all this?!! Where have I been!! Marcie, fabulous clothes! Gosh, I think most of them could work today! Totally agree about the sweater! It's a work of art. I won't even blather on about those shoes...oh my! More works of art! And your next post with the sweet autograph book...I see projects in your future!
Now why wasn't I here before catching up with you! Give me a minute to catch my breath! Have to stop and look more closely at this stuff! Hope you have a wonderful day....and a wonderful time working with the book...it's a treasure!
Warm hugs,
Diane
