There is a silk fragment in Anne Sykes’s mid-#19thc dress diary that is almost identical to this electric blue #1850s gown. It has the same kind of silver woven pattern frosting the outline, proving that Anne was a woman keeping up with changes in style @KSUMuseum #fashionhistory

Dazzling photograph of a girl and her bicycle. I love the details; the gloves, her smile and that dress! No name or date, only that this was taken somewhere in or around Christchurch, New Zealand. I'm guessing circa 1910s. Scanned from my collection.

Very grateful to have worked with such a wise and wonderful woman when I was at Te Papa 1996-200. She taught me so much and was always interested in what I did. Valerie Carson (1936–2020): the pioneer of New Zealand textile conservation blog.tepapa.govt.nz/2020/02/… via @te_papa

Day 24 & a fitting conclusion to #advent through the lens of #fashionhistory. I share this every year as a particular favourite, a mid #1820s dinner dress, clouds of fine cotton caught in corded red around the hem & finely hand worked holly boughs in wool #crewel @metmuseum
