I have developed a new system for choosing the dresses I post. So when I got a blue 1950s dress, I hit the search engines and found this beautiful blue chiffon dress by Edith Head that #GraceKelly wore in the 1954 film 'To Catch a Thief" #greciangoddess #fashionhistory
It always shocks me to think of the dramatic difference between 1800s and 1830s fashion. I like to think of a daughter coming home dressed like that and her mother being like "What the hell are you wearing! What is that puffy-sleeved monstrosity?" #MothersDay #historicalfashion
Men fashion fact today. In the 18th century, some men used the ends of their hair ribbons to tie as a necktie, called the Solitare. It was one of the precursors to the modern necktie. Sounds like a good way to accidentally choke yourself. #historicalfashion #beausinbows
Anxious about your child’s head when they’re learning to walk? Try a pudding! Used by children in the 17th and 18th century. The shape apparently resembles a sausage pudding, hence the name. #historicalfashion #safety #puddinghead
