- Summary
- NoS Summary - Lots of women have fun posing in old fashioned clothes from the 1870s.
NoS synopsis: "Talking about modes, what about Grannie’s "has beens?" Panning shot of women dressed in old fashioned outfits. The women chat to each other and smile at the camera. "Imagine hugging Grandma in these sleeves!" C/U of a woman wearing a dress with large puffy sleeves. She turns to show off to the camera. "And sitting on a tack, those days, was a mere trifle - when you had a bustle!" Camera tilts up to show woman in a dress which features a large bustle. A dresser just out of shot plumps up her bustle! The woman with the large sleeves turns and poses, the other women laugh. The women are all middle aged or elderly - not svelte young models. C/U of one of the old fashioned hats. - Researcher Comments
