Little Ladies Of Fashion Paper dolls, Victorian And Edwardian. These fashions are based on the book “The Grand Dames of Fashion” “Les Petites Dames de Mode” by John Burbidge. The book is also listed in my shop. Theses are Victorian and Edwardian fashions.


For years, doll and costume enthusiasts alike have seized every opportunity to view the authentic period ensembles created by John Burbidge. Titled Les Petites Dames de Mode (the little ladies of fashion), this collection of Victorian and Edwardian gowns worn by 29-inch mannequins has been displayed in prominent museums throughout the country and was the subject of a video produced in the 1990s. Featuring full-page photos of each gown, with close-up views of important details, these paper dolls will be appreciated and treasured by doll collectors, costume historians, clothing designers and fashion aficionados.
