My granddaughter had a "Dickens of a Party" at her middle school. The kids were assigned names and occupations of that era and were to dress in Victorian style. They had to learn the waltz and present themselves with their name and occupation to "Scrooge"!! Caitlin was awarded the prize for the MOST FASHIONABLE, and rightly so since she was a haberdasher in the Victorian Era. According to Wikipedia a Haberdasher is:

A person who sells small, commonly used items in clothing via retail. This can include ribbons and buttons, or completed accessories, such as hats or gloves. A haberdasher's shop or the items sold therein are called haberdashery.
