| Publisher Description: What did a Victorian lady wear for a walk in the park? How did she style her hair for an evening at the theatre? And what products might she have used to soothe a sunburn or treat an unsightly blemish? Mimi Matthews answers these questions and more as she takes readers on a decade-by-decade journey through Victorian fashion and beauty history. This book documents the clothing and accessories worn in the United States during the late Victorian period. Newspapers from the South and catalogs from the Midwest are quoted, as well as fashion magazines from New York, for a well-balanced view of nationwide trends. The book is illustrated with black and white fashion illustrations, photographs, and drawings from the period. |
