A shirtwaist design is the subject here, a tailored blouse with a collar and a button front that became a staple of American women's wardrobes in the 1890s and 1900s. The title also names Priscilla, a fashion and needlework magazine popular in the early twentieth century, though the record does not say whether this image appeared in its pages. The name Ayardof appears without further explanation, so its connection to the design is unclear. Shirtwaists were often sewn at home from printed patterns, which makes images like this useful for seeing how everyday women dressed.
