The Delineator March 1897 Ensemble | 1890s Winter Fashion

Below is the description of an early spring outfit from the  March 1897  issue of the  Delineator  magazine.  The Delineator  was founded by the Butterick Publishing Company to advertise Butterick sewing patterns. The magazines also included sewing and millinery tutorials, fashion advice, needlework patterns, housekeeping tips, and social news.  Click here  to read scans of  The Delineator  from the 1880s to 1930s.  This transcription is part of a new series in which I share my favorite look for each month/season from The Delineator .
