"English Children's Costume Since 1775" is a comprehensive study of the evolution of juvenile fashion in England across more than a century and a half. Written and illustrated by Iris Brooke, this work provides a detailed exploration of how social changes, industrial advancements, and shifting cultural perceptions of childhood influenced the garments worn by boys and girls. Beginning in the late 18th century-a period marked by the transition from miniature adult attire to clothes specifically designed for play and growth-the book tracks the progression of styles through the Regency, Victorian, and Edwardian eras, leading up to the early 20th century.

The work meticulously documents the textures, silhouettes, and accessories that defined each decade, offering insight into the practical and aesthetic considerations of the time. From the skeleton suits of the 1790s to the elaborate crinolines of the mid-19th century and the more relaxed sportswear of the 1920s, the text illuminates the intersection of art and social history. This volume serves as an essential resource for costume designers, historians, and anyone interested in the visual history of English childhood. It captures the charm and complexity of sartorial trends while reflecting the broader shifts in British society and domestic life.
