Thinking back on it, I believe I paid just about 25eu, at the current rate of exchange, for "Evolution of Fashion" when I bought my copy about 23 or 24 years ago.

Something I overlooked is Pinterest. Do you have a Pinterest account? They're free; just the usual thing of a user-name and a password and an email account. I found some corsets being made; some historical corsets being displayed and---drum roll, please!---some of the corsets from the U.S. patent office.

I'll tell you this, though, something for nothing, in my experience you probably won't find better than Waugh's "Corsets and Crinolines." I don't recall how much I paid for my copy decades ago, but I considered it then and consider it today to have been worth every penny and then some, worth its weight in platinum ( ... )
