Fashion in the 1900's





1900's Fashion

I personally feel that that belle epoch period of 1890's to 1914 in fashion is unique. Those wonderful days when women wore morning dresses, afternoon dresses, evening gowns, formal dresses . of course it helped to have an army of servants running after you.
It was also the time when women began to wear suits with shirt waists and blouses !
The great artists of the period captured them so wonderfully.
