This is a place for any extant garments in private collections from about 1941 back. There is no beginning date. The only rule is that it can't be currently in a museum and must be before the bombing of Pearl Harbor. I mostly post items I've seen on ebay, etsy, or other auction sites so we will continue to have a record of them for research purposes. If you have antique clothing in your collection, please, email me pictures of them and I will gladly add them to this site.

Edwardian Shirtwaist!
From the seller:
I found this at an estate sale. It was in a little room in the attic of an old mansion. The little room was full of victorian era women's clothing. Since I know practically nothing about vintage clothing, I only bought a few pieces. I bought this blouse because it looked like what the pretty girls wore in the old movies. This blouse appears to be in really nice condition, except for one tiny hole in the belly button area.
From Me:
The seller claims this is red but it looks pink and purple to me! I am so re-creating this at some point. Very much an early teens era blouse.
