English Children's Costume 1775-1920
Late in the 18th century, English children's apparel began to look different from that worn by their elders. The reason, says writer James Laver in his introduction, is that someone finally realized children were different!This engaging book records those changes, with illustrations depicting styles at five or ten year intervals, from 1775 to 1920. 32 black and white illustrations.Drawn and described by Iris Brooke with an introduction by James Laver.
