She looked at clothing in museums, not just photographs, and definitely found overlapping both ways. ******************* I doubt it not. I've not researched it at all, actually. But I had a friend who used to collect vintage, and I can't recall a dress that overlapped left over right. But that's no definitive observation. I wonder how WHAT the garment is affects this. I mean, is one more likely to find jackets that overlap left to right than say a dress or blouse? Jackets were sorta coming into their own in the 1860's after a few decades of domination by the dress with skirt attached. _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
