I got Janet Arnold's Patterns of Fashion 1660-1860, Nineteenth Century
Fashion in Detail (a V&A book with absolutely stunning photographs), and
After a Fashion by our own Fran, which looks like one of the most useful
general reference books a costumer could have!
I also got the Roumanian Blouse pattern from Folkwear, and a Joann
Fabrics gift card - not historical, but still costume-related.
