Object History
Salvation Army Guide uniform dress belonging to Virginia Blake, early 1960s. From the 6th Vancouver Salvation Army Guides on Hastings Street. Salvation Army was affiliated with Girl Guides (1937) of Canada until 1998. Worn with brown leather belt, beret, folded triangular company tie. The three white stripes on the right breast pocket indicate that wearer was a company leader. The more stripes you had, the higher your rank. A single white stripe, sewn down the center of the pocket, would have indicated that she was a patrol seconder. Two stripes would indicate that she was a patrol leader. White adhesive tape was used so that the Guider didn’t have to unstitch and re-sew the stripes as they gained rank.

The sleeves are loose fitting, trimmed with eight buttons at the forearm and gathered to half a cuff. The centre front of the bodice has a bust dart on either side, and cuts off at the waist.

At the waistline, there is a narrower band of fabric that joins the side belts together and holds the pleats in place. The back of the jacket extends to the hips, and the sides extend several inches further and each end in a point. The skirt, made with six gores, falls smoothly over the hips. It has a pleated ruffle at the top and a waistband reinforced with a large grosgrain ribbon on the inside.

Description
Wedding dress, c.1913. The fabric is an ivory silk chiffon, lined in white satin silk. The skirt extends mid-calf, the sleeves three-quarter length, and there is white beaded decoration on the bottom front of the skirt, as well as the front of the bodice. The silhouette of this dress shows the then fashionable shape of a raised waistline, as well as the poufed blouse front that was still popular. The fabric is light, flowy, and airy, but the cut has straight lines in features such as the bodice panels and large skirt pin tucks. The bodice closes via a panel that hangs down the front, attaches to the waist, and extends down the bodice back. There is an additional panel that attaches on each side front neck, forming a collar, and hangs down the back in a triangular shape. The front panel closes on the left side at the waist and at the left shoulder with snaps. There are two beaded floral starburst patterns, one each on the left and right side of the front bodice panel, connected with three curved lines. There is also a single line of white beads along the edges of the front bodice panel, and both back panels, including the front and side neck. The sleeves connect to the dress lining under the bodice panels. Each has a hanging panel around the elbow line which looks like four triangle shapes that point upwards, tacked above the elbow line. The cuffs are narrowed with a dart and two pin tucks, with a hook and eye closure on a bound placket. Around the waist, there is a belt that connects to itself with snaps, and is tacked to the waistline in the centre back. There are two snaps on the left side waist that may have once been used to secure the belt, but the belt no longer has any corresponding snaps. The skirt is somewhat gathered at the waist, more in the back than the front, and consists of three slightly flared gores. The front gore is plain except for a white beaded floral starburst motif near the bottom front. Three beaded tendril lines extend from either side, spanning the width of the front gore. The other two gores each extend from the side fronts to the centre back; they each have two three inch pin tucks, just above knee level and one below, that hang downwards and extend to centre back. The lining is attached at the waist, and hangs freely under the skirt. It has a front and back gore, as well as two triangular gores on each side starting at knee level. In the bodice it is attached at the neck and shoulders, where it attaches to the unlined sleeves. It closes on the left front with hooks and eyes. Inside the lining, the waist is reinforced with three inch cotton grosgrain ribbon which closes at centre front with hooks and eyes. The dress is sewn mainly by machine with french seams, although the four inch hem is hand sewn with a whip stitch. The sleeve pin tucks are also hand sewn. The length of the skirt lining was reduced just above its hem with a one inch hand stitched tuck.

The shoulder seams are also set further into the back of the jacket. The skirt is made of seven gores, unlined. The front is somewhat gathered. The waistband has a grosgrain ribbon, and closes in the back with two hooks and eyes. the rest of the opening closes with six snaps. The hem extends to the ankles, and the seams are finished by pinking.

Photograph of five women dressed in wet bathing suits. They have their arms over each others' shoulders and have a leg raised as in a chorus line. An older lady, in a long dark skirt and light coloured waist with leg-o-mutton sleeves holding a dark coloured parasol is standing on the right side of the photograph. According to a 1974 catalogue record, the small girl who is on the left side of the chorus line with her leg raised is Catherine Rees. The girl is wearing a ribbon in her hair, and dress-like bathing suit, and has bare feet. The women are all wearing dark coloured stockings and have on what look like loose-fitting dresses which fasten down the front and come to just below the knee. Four of them are wearing bandanas on their heads. The Sears, Roebuck 1908 catalogue p. 1112 shows bathing suits and bathing or dust caps similar to those worn by the women in the photograph. The location of the photograph is unidentified.
