Sorry, I meant not the best original books of patterns "for all time,"
but the best ones for women's clothes of the late 1870s and early 1880s,
specifically; not before or after.

The best books in English with women’s clothing patterns that I know
of (and I’ve been collecting for decades) are the Hecklinger that Robb
reprinted (and Robb’s also collected for decades),
