Published in the late 19th century, this illustrated collection of fancy dress ideas includes descriptions of dress themes such as "Cinderella," "Fish Girl," "Hero," "Hornet," "Italian Peasant," "Magpie," "Music," "Normandy," "Witch," "Goblin" and others. While not published specifically for Mardi Gras revelers, books such as these might have been consulted by dressmakers preparing for the various balls of the Carnival season.
