General Remarks -
Cuir of leather color, in all shades, is still very fashionable, because all other colors can be worn with it, and look well, although it is very unbecoming to the complexion. The taste for plaids increases rather than diminishes. Plaid ribbons, plaid poplins, and plaid velvets are all very much used for Sandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08270266276774231778noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8593009459390186148.post-55579857561902457572012-07-12T20:04:00.000-04:002012-07-12T20:04:08.927-04:00Civil War Era Fashion Plate - January 1864 Peterson's Magazine

General Remarks
There is still no change in the make of dresses. The corsages of those destined for out-door costume are high, and may be either pointed or straight at the waist; this depending on the taste of the wearer. In sleeves the variety of form is very great. Some are slit up the whole length of the arm, and edged with Sandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08270266276774231778noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8593009459390186148.post-71731896285103901122012-06-09T19:49:00.001-04:002012-06-09T19:49:29.557-04:00Civil War Era Fashion Plate - February 1862 Peterson's Magazine

General Remarks
The March winds are so bleak that there has but little that is new appeared as yet. Dresses are now made much flatter and narrower on the hips, and are rarely trimmed, except round the bottom of the skirt; and long sleeves grow narrower daily.

The Hildegorde - This new style of dress is made of slate-colored silk. The body and skirt is cut in one, like the Polonaise or Imperatrice: but instead of the skirt opening in front like the last named dresses, it opens slantwise from the waist down to nearly the bottom of the skirt, where it again turns toward the front.

Plain silk is becoming decidedly fashionable for dresses, and it is now worn in almost every tint.
