Antique Wool Plaid Skirt Set Aging

[Esteban Kelly]

This one has an antique texture and silhouette. I was thinking 1890’s to 1910’s after taking a closer look. Didn’t have enough space at the time to take a full photo of the skirt but showed some details. Any additional info is appreciated.

Esteban,

Have you tried using our Fashion Timeline to try to help date this? I find it really useful with antique clothing where the silhouette is not something I'm comfortable putting a date on. For instance, here is 1890-1900: https://vintagefashionguild.org/fashion-timeline/1890-to-1900/

That is lovely. I agree with Maggie for having a look at our timeline help.
It looks ca 1900 - 1905 to me. Lets see what others think.

Looks like a very nice 1905- 1906 walking suit to me.

What a nice find. I agree with Hollis on the dating. Hard to be accurate without seeing it on a mannequin or person.
