Crinoline Edging Parting Plump Polhill Trimming Turner 1860s

EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a Victorian woman in a dark crinoline dress, an iconic fashion statement of the 1860s. The woman, with a plump figure and an air of elegance, stands in the center of the photograph with a gentle parting in her dark hair, which is adorned with intricate edging and delicate trimming. The dress, a masterpiece of Victorian style, features a dark color palette and an expansive crinoline skirt that creates a dramatic silhouette against the plain background. The crinoline, a popular accessory during the Victorian era, was a hoop skirt made of steel boning and horsehair, which gave the dress its full, bell-shaped silhouette. The dark color of the dress, a departure from the lighter colors commonly worn during this period, adds an element of mystery and sophistication to the woman's appearance. The Victorian era, which spanned from the mid-1800s to the early 1900s, was a time of great social and cultural change. Women's fashion during this period was characterized by elaborate and ornate dresses, which reflected the wealth and status of the wearer. The crinoline dress, with its voluminous skirt and corseted waistline, was a symbol of femininity and grace. This photograph, taken in the late 1800s, captures the essence of Victorian fashion and the beauty of a woman in her finest attire. The dark crinoline dress, with its intricate trimming and elegant style, remains a timeless symbol of the Victorian era and the women who wore them.
