A single fashion plate from Godey's Lady's Book and Magazine, September 1843. It shows two women in mid-19th-century dress: one seated, in a bonnet and lace-trimmed mantle with a ruffled full skirt, holding a letter, and one standing, in a flower-trimmed bonnet and a striped silk or taffeta dress. The setting is a garden with a fence and a tree. The page has no printed text and no weaving content; it is useful as a costume reference.
