As a child I loved the Cicely Mary Barker #flowerfairy illustrations and today put me in mind of the bluebell. We walked amongst a carpet of them at Emsworthy Farm. #CharlesJames’s 1951 petal dress fits the bill beautifully as well @metmuseum #Dartmoorlife #fashionhistory
Today's #ootd shows you don't have to have a 15" waist to wear beautiful dresses. This satin gown was worn by Queen Wilhelmina in 1912 and then altered later in 1923 for the 25th anniversary of her reign. She was the Queen of Netherlands from 1890 to 1948. #FashionHistory

The #pelerine is a filmy garment that sits like a pair of angel wings on the shoulders in an expansive #1830s gown. The elongated #silhouette of this #whitetulle example highlights the #embroidery that is sketched upon its surface @DaguerreSVV #fashionhistory
Jean-Marc Nattier, an acclaimed 18th-century portraitist, was known for his mythological style, painting women in imagined costume that was only loosely based on fashionable trends, as is true in his 1750/60 Portrait of a Woman.

This week's #MerriweatherMonday is Marjorie's amazing silk bias cut evening gown, which she wore for her 1934 portrait by Frank Salisbury. She wore it with a velvet red drape with fox fur, paired it with a ruby and diamond clip and matching Cartier bracelets. #FashionHistory

Today's #ootd is Grand Duchess Maria Georgievna's costume to the 1903 Boyar Ball. She went as a "peasant" from 17th-century Torzhok. The outfit combines three floral patterns that are very different and yet are beautiful together. The душегрея (jacket) is my fav. #FashionHistory
Fashion plates were used to help ladies and their dressmakers see what fashions were being worn in Paris and London.
