    3. Joyce, Here’s some websites I’ve collected over the years. There may be something useful on some of them: 1. c. 1906-1908: The Edwardian Sartorialist http://mashable.com/2015/01/01/edwardian-fashion-photography/ 2. archived version of a website of Victorian styles with links to clothing images from 1840-early 1900s, including to the 1890s and to the Edwardian era: https://web.archive.org/web/20090604053833/http://trulyvictorian.netfirms.com/history.html 1890s: https://web.archive.org/web/20141010162639/http://trulyvictorian.com/history/1890.html Edwardian: https://web.archive.org/web/20141010171347/http://trulyvictorian.com/history/1900.html 3. SUNY-Oneota, course website for Fashion- History of Costume— links to different time periods http://employees.oneonta.edu/angellkg/ 1890s: http://employees.oneonta.edu/angellkg/1890.HTML 1900s: http://employees.oneonta.edu/angellkg/1900.HTML Hope this helps. Juliann P.S. “Forever in Blue Jeans” is my theme song.

This lady MAY have been a business woman in that time period and that MAY be affecting the fact that I cannot find anything similar to her style of dress on site I find on google. If anyone is good at dating NYC women's dress late 1800's to early1900's (she died 1909) please let me know. I can show you a copy of this picture off list. I don't even know what is in fashion NOW, no less what was in fashion a century or more ago LOL MY idea of fashion is Blue Jeans and a T-shirt--or a nice blouse to go out...I'm in the Pacific Northwest--everybody here wears jeans for everything--even in some of the nicer restaurants--(as long as jeans are fairly new and not faded LOL) Thx for any help... Joyce
