Description
Clothing worn throughout this period by members of antebellum society conveyed a distinct glamor and elegance. Tom Tierney captures the ins and outs of authentic garments in 29 in a position-to-color illustrations. Included are walking costumes, evening gowns, morning and afternoon dresses, and wedding apparel for women, in addition to suits, vests, trousers, and handsome military uniforms for the men.
Descriptive captions accompany illustrations in an attractive coloring book in order to not only please coloring book fans, but may also be of use to costume historians and designers.
