EDITORS COMMENTS
This fashion plate, dated November 1881, showcases the elegant and sophisticated fashion trends of the time in France. The image features two well-dressed women adorned in the height of 1880s fashion. The first woman wears a voluminous, dark-colored gown with a fitted bodice, a full skirt, and a high collar. She accessorizes her outfit with a matching shawl and a large, ornate hat adorned with ribbons and feathers. The second woman dons a lighter-colored dress with a similar silhouette, but with a more intricate bodice design and a smaller hat. Both women hold parasols, a necessary accessory for protecting against the sun's rays. Standing between the two women is a young girl, who adds a delightful touch to the scene. She wears a simple, yet charming, white frock with a Peter Pan collar and a matching bonnet. In her hands, she holds a bouquet of flowers, adding a pop of color to the monochromatic palette of the women's outfits. The girl's outfit represents the innocence and playfulness of childhood during this era. The attention to detail in the fabrics, textures, and accessories of the women's dresses is truly remarkable. The intricate lacework, the delicate ruffles, and the elegant gloves all contribute to the overall elegance of the fashion plate. This image offers a glimpse into the fashionable world of late Victorian France and the beautiful clothing that defined the era.
