Product Description

Superbly rendered illustrations, adapted from Godey's Lady's Book, a popular 19th-century fashion magazine, provide authentic views of evolving Victorian fashions — from lace-edged necklines and elongated bodices to fitted bonnets and extravagant bustles. Thirty plates depict lavish dresses, gowns, and coats as well as accessories.

Much too Pretty to Use5
What a lovely book! The range of dresses depicted spans several years, the images are beautifully drawn and highly detailed, and the descriptions that accompany the illustrations are quite informative. I actually purchased this thinking that I would color the images -- but the book is just much too pretty to use!

Color me happy!5
I've been over the moon with fashion paper dolls since I was a kid. Discovering Dover Pictorial Archives coloring books was like Christmas morning for me!

Godey's Fashions Coloring Book is a dream you can make come true with gel pens, crayons, colored pencils -- whatever suits your mood and interpretation of the project.

Frame it or cut it out and incorporate the image into another crafts project! There's lots of fun here!

Colour me wonderful!5
This book is wonderful. The fashions depicted are truly lovely. I'm enjoying it already. Definately a keeper!
