Authentic Victorian Fashion Patterns: A Complete Lady's WardrobeImported custom made clothes were usually beyond the financial reach of the average middle class American woman of a century ago; and store bought garments were often of inferior quality. This left many women with the options of making their own clothes or hiring a seamstress.

Imported custom-made clothes were usually beyond the financial reach of the average middle-class American woman of a century ago; and store-bought garments were often of inferior quality. This left many women with the options of making their own clothes or hiring a seamstress.
While a number of economy-minded women did sew simple housedresses, and clothing for their children, many took favorite fashion plates to a dressmaker who would often consult patterns in a magazine such as The Voice of Fashion. This book, compiled by costume authority Kristina Harris, painstakingly reprints a rich selection of scaled dressmakers' patterns of the 1890s, taken from rare issues of that popular, late-19th century dressmaker's journal. Featuring such fashion elements as leg-o'-mutton sleeves, high-collared necklines, long skirts, and pinched waistlines, the collection includes nearly 500 patterns and illustrations detailing 50 garments for women. Every wardrobe necessity for the Victorian lady is covered -- from nightgowns and wrappers for boudoir and breakfast, a riding habit and tennis outfit, to walking dresses for town and visiting, elegant dinner dresses, and elaborate evening gowns.
An introduction and brief instruction for using the patterns are also included in a volume that will not only find practical use among costume designers and students of fashion history, but will also delight browsers, Victorian enthusiasts, and anyone intrigued by the evolution of clothing styles. 498 illustrations.

Cute but small
Size: Large, Color: Skinny Green
Cute stuffy and has not yet ripped. While my dogs plays with it, the toy is a bit small for him. For reference he is 120lbs.

A Must-Have for Toy-Loving Pups!
My Frenchie is obsessed with this Pawatoga bottle toy! The design is adorable and such a fun twist, but what impressed me most is how durable it’s been. He’s been chewing, tossing, and carrying it around non-stop, and it’s still holding up perfectly. The plush exterior is soft enough for him to snuggle, but the construction is sturdy enough to survive his play sessions. Bonus points for how easy it is to clean and how cute it looks when he’s “sipping” from it! If your dog loves plush toys but you’re tired of them falling apart in a day, this one’s definitely worth it. Stylish, tough, and totally pup-approved.

Perfect toy for a content project!
I got this toy for my content project, and it exceeded my expectations! Very well-made, durable, and safe for pets. My dog instantly loved it and started playing right away. It looks adorable in photos and videos. Highly recommend it for both playtime and creating great visual content.

Super cute!
The pattern is great and colors are very bright. Good value for money, but could be stronger fabric as it seems like it would rip easily.
