Have you ever seen the movie Anee of green gables? Do you know anything about the fashion back then?

Question

I'm looking for some of the dresses from those times. What would they be called, or what could I search on ebay that may bring up some similar searches

Answer 1

The version by Megan Follows and Colleen Dewhurst is by far the best.

The fashion is called Victorian and/or Edwardian.

The book was first published in 1908 so look for that time frame. Here is one site I found:

Here is a great site where you can choose what year.

Answer 2

Well it Anne of Green Gables takes place in the early 1900's so I would look in that time frame. Here's a website to start you off:
