Dress of the Century: 1900-1909

Hey. I figured that in between sewing projects (that are taking me longer now that school is back in) I'd supplement this blog with a new series of posts; "Dress of the Century." I'll take each decade from the 20th Century and post a page from the Sears catalog for each year. I'm going to go from 0-9 instead of 1-0. I'll be going in order so the first decade up is 1900-1909. Enjoy

And there you have the very first decade of the 20th century. Not a whole lot had changed, but you can start to see a loosening of the silhouette in 1906. I admit I don't know a whole lot about this decade in fashion so I will just let the pictures tell the story.
