  • A theatre costumer's point of view

    Anyone who expresses interest in fashion or costume history needs to own this book!

  • Professional Reviews

    What would romance writers do without Dover and their marvelous historical books? These books and even era paper dolls are inexpensive, and yet, thorough works that really can put you into the period. This book is stunning.

Very thorough identification of styles, materials, colors by editor. "An endlessly entertaining book." — Theatre Design and Technology.

  • Excellent primary source material

    Illustrations from period source material make fashion research of the late 19th century much easier. The original drawings are accompanied by the original notes which explain the fashions and use terms from the period.
