This website is a compilation of the information on 19c fashions available on the Internet.  I have combined everything that I could find in order to create one comprehensive 19c website.  Scores of new sites have sprung up lately, however, and not all of the sites are equally authoritative.  This website represents a culled sampling of the best, intended to give the viewer a sense of the evolution of women's dress in the 1800s.
