chocolatepotI can't believe I forgot one of the coolest things I brought home with me! I bought this tote bag from the Fashion Archives, printed with a gridded/scaled pattern of a gown (I think 1850s, altered for 1860s) from their collection. It's wonderful and I can't wait to take it to my next patterning appointment.

A couple of links I've had up forever:
The diary of Hannah Cassamajor East (1746-1810), which runs from 1776 to 1785. (Scroll past the notes about fees simple.) Sometimes talks about clothes and stuff!
The Getty has a lot of digitized books on dress - some of it's historical primary sources, some of it's old books on historical fashion, some of it's exhibition catalogues.
