It was cold day in Canberra today, with icy winds blowing down from the mountains. Thus it was distinctly cheering to find the latest addition to my collection awaiting me on the doorstep when I got home. The clothes illustrated in this fashion catalogue from the 1890s look enviably warm, too! Later pages show a generous selection of coats, cloaks and cosy wrappers for home wear.
