Women's fashions year by year: 1795 to 1948

153 yrs of women's fashion in 8 mins . Up to 1893 it's sound stuff (the original source for pre-1893 seems to have shown the spring fashion followed by the autumn one but I'm afraid I haven't reflected this in the order they appear in the frame for each year, not having noticed until it was too late, while pics chosen to fill gaps in the original for 1801, 1878, 1879 and 1886 were picked for that year from the web, at random) - after 1893 seasons are ignored and it's the work of someone who's quite fussy about dating but couldn't tell a twill from a taffeta. Acknowledgement of all image sources given in the end credits (except for half a dozen or so mislaid ones) - both thanks and apologies to all website owners concerned.
