A Seasonable Dress
Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A short fashion-magazine item from the Work Department of Godey's Lady's Book describing a dress of 1860 with decorative braces. The braces pass over the shoulders and end in bows front and back, with five rows of quilled ribbon across the front and back. The text also describes the hanging sleeves, a spotted net chemisette and undersleeves with lace trim, and notes that the braces can be moved from one dress to another or made in black velvet. One engraved illustration shows the dress from behind.
