House of Elliot is early - about 1919-1924, and very accurate >> Archived Message

For a good variety of the silhouettes and styling, you can't beat House of Elliot. The British are not squeamish about the sometimes awkward styles, and simply reproduce them accurately, which, as you know, is my chief complaint about American drama that features historical fashions. We tend to want to flatter the actress. Your library system may have the set of DVDs if you strike out on Amazon. It is meticulously done, and you will get a good variety of the pre-1920s to mid-1920s styles, along with an entertaining story line. You'll enjoy the series!
