1897
Compilation CD
This disc is a compilation of images from The Delineator, The Designer, and The Standard garment Cutting Co. Book of Drafts from the year 1897. I have selected images form these publications pertaining to women's fashion and dressmaking.
We see a change in this decade from the upholstered to the sleek. The dramatic change in the sleeve mimics the powerful presence womankind was making on the world. Watch the sleeves in this decade grow to immense proportion (bigger than your head by 1896!) and then shrink back down again. These are the beginning days of the bicycle, and women's interest and participation in this sport is phenomenal. We see an increase in education as women begin to invade the work force.
In this grouping you'll see images from Butterick's "Delineator" and Standard Designer patterns "Designer" magazines as well as several other publications in my collection.
