EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Spectacle of Extravagance: The Incroyable and His Merveilleuse in 1794 Paris" In this image from 1794, an incroyable (extraordinary) man and his merveilleuse (wonderful) companion proudly display their extreme fashion statements, embodying the trend-setting spirit of the French Revolution era. The couple's daring ensembles reflect the opulence and audacity that characterized the French Merveilleuses and Incroyables, a social group known for their flamboyant attire. The incroyable, dressed in an extravagant costume, dons a velvet coat with a silk lining, a lace jabot, and a tricorn hat adorned with ostrich plumes. His breeches are fitted, accentuating his slender figure. The man's refined appearance contrasts with the boldness of his fashion choices, such as the exaggerated buckles on his shoes and the bright red cravat that adds a pop of color to his ensemble. His merveilleuse companion, on the other hand, wears a voluminous gown with a low-cut neckline, revealing her ample cleavage. The dress, made of silk and adorned with intricate embroidery, is accessorized with a feathered shawl and a fan. Her hair is styled in an elaborate updo, with curls cascading down her back. The couple's fashion choices were a reflection of their desire to challenge societal norms and embrace the spirit of the French Revolution. Their extreme statements served as a form of rebellion against the rigid social structures of the time, making them trendsetters in the world of fashion. This photograph, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the opulent and daring world of the French Merveilleuses and Incroyables. It is a testament to the power of fashion as a form of self-expression and a reminder of the enduring allure of the past.
