EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite dress from the House of Worth, dating back to 1905. The photograph was taken by a talented French photographer in the 20th century and is now housed at the Fashion Museum Bath. Designed by Jean-Philippe Worth, a renowned fashion designer from France, this dress epitomizes elegance and sophistication. The album page itself is made of photographic paper, card, and ink while the costume features luxurious materials such as silk taffeta, silk velvet, embroidered net, and embroidered silk. The dress on display is truly a work of art with its black taffeta fabric adorned with graduated curving velvet bands. Its fitted bodice boasts a narrow V-neckline along with leg-of-mutton sleeves that add a touch of drama. Additionally, it features a pointed embroidered waistband and a trained full-length skirt fitted to the hips with delicate pin tucks. This timeless piece exemplifies style and fashion from over a century ago but still manages to captivate contemporary audiences today. With its impeccable craftsmanship and attention to detail, it serves as an inspiration for designers across generations. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, this stunning photograph allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of this particular garment but also gain insight into historical fashion trends that have shaped our modern sense of style.
