EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored lithograph captures the elegance and sophistication of a woman in a puce taffeta caraco over a petticoat of pink taffeta. The intricate details of her outfit, from the delicate fabric to the ornate design, showcase the luxurious fashion of Marie Antoinette's time.
The woman portrayed exudes femininity and grace, embodying the style and poise expected of ladies in nobility. As a merchant to the Queen and ladies of the court, Madame Eloffe would have been responsible for dressing these elite women in only the finest garments.
The vibrant colors and exquisite craftsmanship depicted in this print transport us back to 18th century Paris, where fashion was not just clothing but an art form. From redingotes to pierrots, bonnets to pouf hats, every detail was carefully considered to create a look that reflected one's status and taste.
As we admire this piece from "Fashions and Customs of Marie Antoinette and her Times," we are reminded of the opulence and grandeur that defined Versailles society. This image serves as a window into a world where style was paramount, showcasing how clothing could be used as a means of expression for those within aristocratic circles.
