Fashion history illustration from a March 1873 issue of Harper's Bazar (the name change to Harper's "Bazaar" occurred with the November 1929 issue). The image shows a young woman in a Dolly Varden house dress.
A Dolly Varden dress is generally understood to be a woman's outfit fashionable from about 1869 to 1875 in Britain and the United States. It is named after a character in Charles Dickens.
