Welcome to our historical fashion game show! In this new series called “Guess the Date,” I guess the year various antique dresses from a specific century were made. This installment covers the 19th century, probably the period of historical fashion I am most familiar with.

Joining this series is my close friend, Brittany Bishop, acting as judge, scorekeeper, and selector-of-dresses.

How many of these late Georgian and Victorian dresses will I get correct? How many gowns will confuse and mislead me because historical clothing can be complex? Find out in this episode of “Guess the Date: 19th Century Edition”!

The next century we’ll be covering in a few months is the 15th century, which should be a lot of fun because I know almost nothing about the period!

Thank you so much for watching!
