153 yrs of women's fashion in 8 mins . Up to 1893 it's sound stuff (the original source for pre-1893 seems to have shown the spring fashion followed by the autumn one but I'm afraid I haven't reflected this in the order they appear in the frame for each year, not having noticed until it was too late, while pics chosen to fill gaps in the original for 1801, 1878, 1879 and 1886 were picked for that year from the web, at random) - after 1893 seasons are ignored and it's the work of someone who's quite fussy about dating but couldn't tell a twill from a taffeta. Acknowledgement of all image sources given in the end credits (except for half a dozen or so mislaid ones) - both thanks and apologies to all website owners concerned.

Wow, there was a huge shift in fashion in 1912. 1900-1911 all looked the same, but then BOOM 1912 came and the clothing started to become less poofy every year.
You can check out the website for Harpers' Monthly Magazine, which in the 1850s had a monthly engraving of the latest fashions, and once in a while a cartoon making fun of the perils of wearing hoopskirts.
Depends on your social stand, and religion. Quakers and such could wear simple frocks. And a poor women could wear a plain dress. These would be dresses for going out and visits. At home they dress down.
