French Fashion during the reign of Marie Antoinette
If you want to know how the wealthier women of Marie's court dressed, this annotated selection of sketches, each depicting a dress or costume, will be quite revealing. The only problem is a lack of colour: the pictures are in black and white.

Clothing in Colonial America
Hosted by the Colonial Williamsburg living museum, and written by Linda Baumgarten, this is a fully illustrated guide to male and female clothing as worn by the European settlers in America.

Illustrated Clothing
This site hosts all the full colour plates from Braun & Schneider’s The History of Costume, published between 1861-1880. There is no annotation, but the pictures are excellent and wide-ranging.
