| Women's fashions year by year: 1795 to 1948 |
 |
153 yrs of women's fashion in 8 mins . Up to 1893
it's sound stuff (the original source for pre-1893
seems to have shown the spring fashion followed by
the autumn one but I'm afraid I haven't reflected
this in the order they appear in the frame for
each year, not having noticed until it was too
late, while pics chosen to fill gaps in the
original for 1801, 1878, 1879 and 1886 were picked
for that year from the web, at random) - after
1893 seasons are ignored and it's the work of
someone who's quite fussy about dating but
couldn't tell a twill from a taffeta.
Acknowledgement of all image sources given in the
end credits (except for half a dozen or so mislaid
ones) - both thanks and apologies to all website
owners concerned.

| Fashions in corsets and lingerie, year by year: 1900 - 1950 |
 |
Slideshow of adverts and mail order cat.
illustrations mainly, with some magazine feature
and manufacturer's material. Have included a few
stocking ads, as well. [Error in vid: the first
frame for 1920 has two pictures of women in
girdles on the left - these should have been dated
1930, if in fact, any firm year can be assigned to
them.]The absence of the garter (in widespread use
until c 1930) from this material, seems odd -
presumably they were covered by the lengthy
bloomers etc.Also, in order the better to display
their wares, manufacturers' photos for ads etc
always show models wearing their underwear beneath
, say, a hip girdle although from the early to mid
30s (and from the mid 20s, in the case of the
suspender belt) when corsetry could be worn next
to the skin, it would, when possible, be worn over
it, in real life.
