We have fashion prints grouped into categories, from different periods, popular styles include, the Fashion of the Brontes, Art Deco Fashions, Regency Fashions ...

Fashion - Antique Prints

The antique fashion prints that are available are generally engravings that were produced for Ladies of Quality in various magazines or journals that they would subscribe to, there were a handful of these publications in the times between 1750 and 1890 ...

This is because high street clothes shops didn't exist in the same way that they do now, ladies would more commonly shop for fabrics, fine textiles and the like ...

... these they would have made up by a local dressmaker or seamstress, of course the very wealthy would have their dresses designed and made up in the houses of Paris and Milan - these being the forerunners of today's designer labels

Everyone else would use the pictures of the latest fashions to have their dresses made up. This being the case, the antique fashion prints obviously depicted pictures of the latest, most up to date fashions from the big cities.

Selection of Antique Prints

We have a wide selection of fashion prints at any one time, I hope you enjoy looking through them - we would be very glad to sell you a few too!
