"Good Form: Dress and Decorum
for the Woman of Fashion, 1873-1911" explores the
rules that governed women's dress and daily lives at the
turn of the 20th century. Consider the dresses of one
family's wardrobe during this transition from the formalities
of Victorian life to the emerging liberties of the Edwardian
woman. Juxtaposing the garments with undressed forms will
expose the changing identity of a woman of fashion.
