Superbly rendered illustrations, adapted from Godey's Lady's Book, a popular 19th-century fashion magazine, provide authentic views of evolving Victorian fashions ― from lace-edged necklines and elongated bodices to fitted bonnets and extravagant bustles. Thirty plates depict lavish dresses, gowns, and coats as well as accessories.
