Description
Dressing up for special occasions is always enjoyable, and few people did it as well as the Victorians. This collection of archive photographs from the turn of the century records royalty and ordinary members of society at different social occasions, from court society to Derby Day and a country fete. This study will be of particular interest to costume historians, students and researchers. Christina Walkley is a costume historian whose previous publications include a study of the dressmaking trade of the last century, "The Victorian Seamstress".
