Does anyone know of a link to Victorian Artistic Greek-style dresses? I'm particularly looking for the source
for the dress in English Women's Clothing in the Nineteenth Century, on page 345, labeled "Greek costume
embroidered in gold (Peter Robinson), 1888" - but I'd be happy to see any Victorian Greek or Classical dinner
dress, ball dress, etc. Not allegorical, though, or fancy dress. Something real women wore (or might wear,
as in fashion plates).
Thanks!
