Re: Traditional day dress c. 1870
Readers;
As Mr.Newsome knows, this image is an example of 'fossileization' (sic)in Fashions, very little changes once the "Design" is agreed on. One thinks, of course, of the Amish folks. The curious image dates to just the period when the Highland Fashions settled on Form & Style-IMHO. "Roundabout coats'' and high collars went 'out', and this 'look' emerged. I suspect the odd belt is a spoof.
Thanks for the Image and the Look Back
