Oconee County Library
Women's History Month

Have you ever wondered what historic women wore under their long dresses? Join Eva Elarbee as we explore the different layers that went into making an 1890s silhouette. Eva will start the presentation in her historic foundationwear and get dressed in an accurate 1898 outfit. Along the way, we’ll pass around antique garments from her collection and look at photographs and fashion plates from the turn of the 20th century.
