Beautiful and I DO want to play dress up. Love that red and purple. ~~Peg

Those three dresses in the last photo are beautiful, I'd love to try them on :) I love all the detail and craftmanship that has gone into them, certainly not throw-away-fashion like you get today.

Thanks for looking....the Château is a great show piece of fashion, decor, art, architecture and such....a real standout.

These are awesome dresses. Have done a lot sewing in the past and realize how much work went into these by hand.

Never played dress up. Was to much of a tom-boy. But the ones in the last would be fun to try.

As for the colors they are lovely but suspect they have been Michaelized. lol

Come on Michael, fess up. lol I don't think they had that bright of colors back then. The dyes were just not that vivid. You touched the sat button somewhere in pping. Have you ever seen them dye wool in demonstration anywhere?
