1863 Adopt Cage Conditions Constructed Crinoline Crinolines Frame Judging Labour Manufacture Positions Template

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history when women in Germany were hard at work making cage crinolines. The intricate process involved constructing these undergarments around a wooden frame or template, showcasing the skilled labor and attention to detail required for such delicate work. Despite the demanding conditions of the factory setting, the women depicted in this image appear focused and dedicated to their craft. Interestingly, it is noted that they are not wearing crinolines themselves, as evidenced by their practical attire and positions adopted while working on the garments. The Victorian era was known for its elaborate fashion trends, with cage crinolines being an essential accessory for achieving the desired silhouette. This photograph provides a rare glimpse into the behind-the-scenes production of these iconic pieces of clothing, shedding light on the often overlooked role of female laborers in shaping historical fashion trends. As we reflect on this snapshot from 1863, we are reminded of the resilience and creativity of women throughout history who have played a vital role in industries such as garment manufacturing. Their contributions deserve recognition and appreciation for helping to shape our understanding of fashion history.
