Victorian Collars and Cuffs (for men)

In Victorian men's fashion, Collars and Cuffs were something altogether separate and different than a shirt. A whole different paradigm, given today's men's dress shirts are one solid piece, with the collar and cuffs attached. See vintage images of the styles and reasons why tailors (and factory producers) bothered to make the collars separate--and why some were made of PAPER rather than fabric.
