Description: Woman's suit, c.1892. White linen with hand worked embroidery. High collar, long full sleeves, flared floor length skirt, puffed bodice front, long ties in bodice back. The high collar has point de gaze lace edging, and is covered in hand worked floral embroidery. Down the centre front of the bodice there are four tiny pin tucks. There is more floral embroidery on either side front, and a large tuck on either side of that covering the shoulder seams and angling slightly towards centre front. The tucks continue down the bodice back on the same way. On the top back of the bodice there are seven more tiny pin tucks on either side. Down the centre back there is an opening with five white pearl buttons. At the bodice back bottom there is some gathering covered with a long tie on each side. These may have been used to tie around the front, which would otherwise hang open around the waist. The sleeves have some volume, although they lack the large leg o' mutton cap. They are gathered at the cuff, which has a band of floral embroidery and is edged in point de gaze lace. The separate skirt has a grosgrain waistband and opens down the centre back with four snaps and a hook and eye at the top. There are five gores, with floral embroidery down the centre front. The dress is unlined, and the seams are finished with a whip-stitch.

Object History: This suit was worn by Bertha May Shaw in 1892, likely in Regina, Saskatchewan.

Description: Woman's suit, c.1920. Copper coloured cotton twill with blue silk crepe chiffon. Long sleeved cardigan, a-line calf length skirt, blue buttons and blue embroidery. The suit consists of a cardigan style jacket with a false shirt panel, and a skirt. The cardigan has a collar that extends to its hem past the hips. Here there is a round weight on each side to help the jacket hold its shape. Halfway down the jacket, on each side of the 'collar' there are two sets of four chiffon covered buttons. Under the collar, it is lined with blue chiffon. The back of the jacket has four small pleats secured with some tacks. There is a belt loop on either side of the waist, but no belt currently. The sleeves are also lined with blue chiffon in the cuffs, and hand embroidered on the outside in an abstract pattern with blue floss. There is also embroidery in lines down the centre front panel that joins each side of the cardigan. It closes with snaps on the left side, and is lined with white silk striped with blue. The skirt has an grosgrain waistband that closes with three hooks and eyes, and three snaps in the closure below. There are two slightly flared panels, one in front and one in the back. The whole waist is gathered, the back more so. The front has a large abstract blue embroidery motif. The skirt extends to calf length. Seams are finished with pinking, and huge seam allowances.

Physical Description: 1 photograph : b&w ; 10.0 x 12.5 cm

Scope and Content: 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.
