EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the Victorian era with this enchanting image from Mary Evans Picture Library, featuring a young girl adorned in the latest fashion trends of May 1868. The girl's outfit consists of a white paletot, a type of jacket with peplum points that flare out at the hem. The peplum, a popular design element during this period, adds volume and elegance to the jacket. The girl also wears a habit shirt with a puff at the sleeve top, adding a playful and feminine touch to the otherwise simple blouse. Her skirt, adorned with pyramid trim, adds a sense of grandeur and sophistication to her ensemble. The tunic, which features peplum skirt ends, is cinched at the waist with a broad ribbon, drawing attention to her slender figure. The use of ribbon trimmings is a common theme in Victorian fashion, as seen in the rosette at the girl's neckline and the sausage-shaped bretelles that hold up her blouse. Her curls are neatly styled and framing her face, adding a touch of innocence and charm to her appearance. This photograph offers a glimpse into the fashionable world of Victorian children, showcasing the intricate details and elegant designs that were popular during this era. The broad ribbon trimmings, peplum skirts, and puff sleeves are just a few examples of the ornate and decorative elements that defined Victorian fashion. Overall, this image is a beautiful representation of the fashion trends of May 1868, offering a glimpse into the past and the rich history of Victorian fashion.
