In this article, we intend to study these garments as objects that reflect not only the daily lives of the time in which they were used, but also how those objects became pieces worthy of being a testimony for national history. Another of our objectives with this article is to generate new knowledge about the women of the past, which enriches the current museological scripts. In addition, we seek to add a type of material source to the study of clothing that allows a different contribution on the circulation of these garments, as well as to inquire about symbolic and political dimensions that emerge from their use. Distintas mujeres de la primera mitad del siglo XIX, en su mayoría pertenecientes a la elite porteña, vistieron sobre sus cuerpos diversas prendas, como vestidos, capas, batas, mantillas, que décadas más tarde fueron donadas a uno de los principales museos históricos de Argentina, el Museo Histórico Nacional. En este artículo pretendemos estudiar esas prendas como objetos que reflejan no solo las vidas cotidianas de la época, en las que fueron usadas, sino también cómo esos objetos se convirtieron en piezas dignas de ser testimonio de la historia nacional. Otro de nuestros objetivos con este artículo es generar nuevos conocimientos sobre las mujeres del pasado, que logren enriquecer los guiones museológicos actuales. Además, buscamos sumar un tipo de fuente material al estudio de la indumentaria que permita hacer un aporte distinto sobre la circulación de estas prendas, como así también indagar sobre dimensiones simbólicas y políticas que se desprenden de su uso.
