EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 1840s fashion print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back in time to an era of elegance and opulence. The image showcases a Victorian woman dressed in a green pelisse-robe, a popular style during this period. The robe features cord fastenings down the front, adding a touch of practicality to the otherwise ornate design. The reverse points of the cuff and the upper part of the bishop sleeves are also adorned with cords, adding texture and visual interest. The woman accessorizes her outfit with an ermine muff, a luxurious fur accessory that was a status symbol during the Victorian era. The ermine fur is contrasted beautifully with the pink collar of the robe, adding a pop of color to the monochromatic ensemble. The woman's hairstyle is also noteworthy, with her hair styled in an elegant updo adorned with flowers. The bonnet, which is not visible in this print, would have completed the look. The green poke-style redingote, or long jacket, with its full skirt and high waistline, was a common silhouette for women during the 1840s. The pink collar and ermine trim add a feminine touch to the otherwise formal and structured design. This print is a testament to the intricate details and attention to design that characterized the Victorian era. The use of ermine fur and the contrasting pink collar add a sense of luxury and opulence, while the cord fastenings add a practical touch to the otherwise ornate design. Overall, this print is a beautiful representation of Victorian fashion and the gothic, historical aesthetic of the time.
