EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to June 1870, where children's fashion was characterized by elegant and intricately designed costumes. The photograph features a young girl gracefully skipping, her attire embodying the essence of Victorian fashion. The girl's ensemble comprises of a two-piece outfit, with an under-skirt and an over-skirt. The under-skirt, not visible in the photograph, would have been worn as a petticoat to add volume to the over-skirt. The over-skirt, with an apron front, is adorned with a jacket bodice that boasts deep basques, forming an over-skirt that cascades around the girl's feet. The jacket itself is a masterpiece of Victorian design, with a polonaise style bodice and long, puffed sleeves. The bodice features a pointed hem and a waistband that cinches in at the waist, accentuating the girl's figure. The deep basques of the jacket create an illusion of an hourglass silhouette. The girl's tunic, worn underneath the jacket, is also noteworthy. It boasts a pointed hem and a waistband that matches the jacket, creating a cohesive look. The girl accessorizes her outfit with a pagoda-style shawl, adding a touch of elegance and warmth to her ensemble. This photograph is a testament to the intricate and beautiful fashion of the Victorian era, showcasing the attention to detail and craftsmanship that went into creating children's clothing during this period. The girl's joyful expression as she skips, encapsulates the innocence and playfulness of childhood, making this image a truly enchanting glimpse into the past.
