The sewing machine revolutionized the
clothing industry, making it possible for women to afford high fashion.
Just before and during the US Civil War, womens hoops reached
their ultimate
width. Dresses very often were manufactured with two bodices: one
with a high neckline and long sleeves for daytime wear and a second
with
low neckline and small sleeves for evening. Silks were used for
both
day and evening wear. #V131 Bodice has 3/4 length sleeves with white engageantes (false undersleeves), contrasting trim and rounded collar. Skirt is full and is deisigned to wear with a hoopskirt. Available in Misses sizes 8-20 Available in Blue, Red, Green or Pink Cotton/Polyester fabric $250.00
