A day of perfect bliss
Victorian children looked forward to the Christmas party season with great delight.A thrilling ride in horse and trap took them through the sparkling white snow to a friend’s house for games, dancing or for something very special - a Fancy Dress Ball.
And what to wear at a Fancy Ball was often a question of momentous interest.
Grandpa joins in the frolicsome dances
With the last dance of the last ball of the season, the Victorian Christmas has come and gone - and a most marvellous Christmas it has been !
