Description:Before the twentieth century, women's ready-made apparel was practically unheard of, and only the wealthy could afford to hire someone to make their clothes. But during the 1860s, a pioneering American tailor named Ebenezer Butterick developed simplified patterns that allowed home seamstresses to broaden their wardrobes and dress in the latest styles. To promote his patterns, Butterick established a semi-annual catalog containing "the Latest and Reigning Fashions for Ladies', Misses', and Children's Wear." Kristina Seleshanko, a noted fashion historian, has selected images from an 1898 issue of The Butterick Publishing Co.'s Metropolitan Fashions to highlight a gorgeous variety of women's and children's apparel. The illustrations range from everyday dresses to evening gowns and include lingerie, sportswear, and hats. An Appendix showcases men's styles as well.
