Les Petites Dames de Mode

Gathered for the first time in one volume, the more than 50 authentic period ensembles created by Mr. Burbidge, a former bridal designer for Priscilla of Boston, are modeled by 29-inch mannequins, his "little ladies of fashion." Full-page photos of the Victorian and Edwardian gowns are accompanied by detail shots and the designer's extensive notes on the creation of each piece. Foreword by Elizabeth Ann Coleman.
