is William Hartnell 1951 wedding dress featured in 's 2015 exhibit Wedding Dresses 1775-2014. A cream dress with lovely beaded work, I especially love the how the collar and pleats draw your eye to the middle of the bodice.

Today I feature a motif as opposed to one item. This 1800-05 yellow Muslim dress introduced me to 'Vandyke scollops." This is a pointed zigzag pattern that was popular in the Regency era and named after the lace trim found in Anthony Van Dyke paintings

Here's an elegant 1902 dress It was worn by Jane Norton Morgan, the wife of American financial giant, J. P. Morgan's son. Her father was also a banker. She was quite fashionable, I love the crossed front and the orange flowers.

Today I learned about Limerick gloves. They were made from the leather of unborn lamb fur, making them very rare and difficult to produce. The fur was so thin that it could be folded into a walnut shell and was given as gifts to loved ones and friends
