Table of Contents Ladies' Vintage Accessories is a comprehensive book covering the accessories that women have used over the past 150 years, some pieces dating back even earlier to 1820, like a parasol from the Jackson-Decatur debates. A glimpse into the closets and trunks of author LaRee Johnson Bruton, a private collector for over 30 years, reveals the hats, purses, hankies, gloves, fans, parasols, hosiery, shoes, aprons, belts, sashes, and capes that completed ensembles of ladies from the past. This book is a compelling photo-study of the styles for each era - Victorian, Edwardian, Roaring Twenties, Depression, WWII, Fabulous Fifties, and Modern - and an indispensable identification and value guide for collectors of vintage fashion. Get a feel for the past while reading this lovely tribute to fashion accents. Values 2005; Copyright 2001
