Publisher description
Elaborate and lovely, these authentic patterns capture all the charm of 19th-century fashion, but in miniature! Doll collectors will delight as they pore through—and then sew—a gallery of costumes. There are day dresses with great gigot sleeves and full skirts; comfortable wrappers that would have been worn at home; walking costumes with smooth bodices, and a two-piece promenade dress with flowing expanses of fabric; and other exquisite fashions of the age, from France, Germany, and beyond. "...a gold mine of information....All costumes are shown in color photographs and are modeled on dolls from the period....Highly recommended."—Library Journal. "...should be of great interest to anyone who likes to sew doll clothes...features a Gallery of full-color photographs of enchanting dolls in Victorian splendor."—Doll Castle News. 8 1/2 X 10. All in Color
