Here’s a very nice Victorian trade card, featuring a woman wearing a formal gown. She looks like she is dressed for a ball, with her blue satin dress, gold necklace and floral corsage! I’ve added some pretty antique buttons to my Etsy shop, check them out if you get a chance!
Wonderful stuff, this! I’m so happy to have discovered your blog. I came over from one of PLO’s blogs. If you’re interested, I came upon a beautiful painting of a young girl who turned out to be a youthful Queen Elizabeth II. That image, which I found on Wikipedia, may be copyright-free. Check it out at The Queen And I.

thewillowsnest – Thanks for the sweet comment about my shop!
Rochambeau – I’m glad you like my buttons!
Rosemary- That’s so funny I was thinking the same thing, I wonder when the term “prom” began?
