Q. I'm doing the play Miss Julie in class and I need images of the fashion, clothing or costumes for my assignment. The play takes place in Sweden during the 1880s. Where do I find sources?
Hi,
We have two online books that has the images of Freja Illustrerad Skandinavisk Modetidning which comes from the Nordic Museum in Sweden and they range from 1889-1910. They are the perfect example that will help as well.
