EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of French aristocracy during the reign of Louis XV. The French Marquise depicted in this image exudes elegance and sophistication, dressed in the iconic panier dress that was popular during the 1740s. The panier dress, with its exaggerated wide hips created by hoops or panniers, was a fashion statement that symbolized wealth and status.
Despite its beauty, the panier dress was notoriously awkward to wear, as it required women to navigate through doorways sideways due to its sheer size. However, this did not deter fashionable women like the French Marquise from donning this extravagant garment at court.
The intricate details of her costume showcase the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating such elaborate ensembles for noblewomen of that era. From delicate lace trimmings to luxurious fabrics, every element of her attire speaks volumes about her social standing and refined taste.
As she poses regally for the artist capturing her likeness, one can almost imagine being transported back in time to witness firsthand the opulence and grandeur of life at court during this period in history. This print is a true testament to the enduring allure of historical fashion and serves as a reminder of a bygone era filled with glamour and extravagance.
