Has anyone researched when dressmakers/tailors first starting putting labels in their goods? In particular I'm interested in the mid 19th century. I know House of Worth was marking their goods by the 1890's but I'm hoping for something earlier.
I have a Worth bodice of around 1860 (ish) which has a label in it, if that is any help? I will be doing a "show and tell" with it shortly if you want me to scan it and send it off list?
