Reprinted from four rare dress pattern catalogs, this compilation offers an excellent overview of apparel from the late Victorian and early Edwardian eras. More than 3,750 black-and-white illustrations depict everything from bicycle suits to evening wear, including men's and children's clothing as well as ladies' shirtwaists, wrappers, skirts, and lingerie.

This beautiful look at fans through the ages is illustrated in full color with some of the most spectacular examples from the world famous dress collection of the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. Created throughout history for a multitude of different purposes, many fans are also exquisite works of art. Tracing the evolution of the art of European fan making -- & the social uses of the fan -- the story begins in the 17th century, & concludes with the near-demise of fans early this century. Includes 19th- & 20th-century commercial fans, as well as examples of modern artist s fans. Combines lively text & color photos, along with contemporary engravings, magazines, journals & original designs.

Forty charmingly rendered designs — including border and corner motifs — display rosy-faced lovebirds, a cardinal, western meadowlark, house sparrow, cedar waxwing, scarlet macaw, toucan, ruby-throated hummingbird, and other handsome species. Ideal for embroidery, fabric painting, other crafts.
