FASHION - HATS, 1827. Shady Retreats for Summer
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white etching from 1827 takes us back to the world of English fashion in the early 19th century. The image is a satirical commentary on the ever-evolving trends in women's hats during that era. In this whimsical scene, we see men and women strolling around an exterior space adorned with giant carousel-like structures. Women are dressed in elaborate gowns with hoop skirts, their heads crowned by oversized hats that defy gravity. These extravagant headpieces, known as gigot hats, were all the rage at the time. The artist skillfully captures both the absurdity and grandeur of these fashionable accessories. The sheer size of these hats provides ample shade for their wearers during summer retreats while simultaneously making a bold statement about one's social status and taste. The etching also showcases a dandy couple who epitomize elegance and sophistication. They stand out amidst a sea of people due to their impeccable attire and refined demeanor. This historical print not only offers us a glimpse into the world of fashion but also serves as a reminder of how clothing choices can reflect societal norms and aspirations throughout history. It stands as an intriguing testament to our enduring fascination with style and self-expression through clothing.
