1. Title: A Frenchwoman's Extravagant Concealment: 1590s Fashion Unveiled 2.. This image portrays a Frenchwoman from the late 1590s, showcasing the intricate and contrasting layers of fashion that characterized the opulent yet sophisticated style of the era. The primary focus of the ensemble is a sober, ornamented gown that is raised to reveal a much more flamboyant underskirt. The gown itself is a testament to the intricacies of 16th-century French fashion. Its high neckline and long, fitted sleeves are adorned with delicate lace and intricate embroidery, adding a subtle elegance to the garment. The bodice is structured by a farthingale, a rigid hoop worn under the skirt to create a full, rounded silhouette. This fashion accessory marks the style of the gown, as it was a common element in women's clothing during this period. However, the true spectacle lies beneath the raised hem of the gown. The underskirt, hidden from view in public, is a flamboyant explosion of fabric, ruffles, and ornamentation. The raised ruff, a popular fashion trend, adds an additional layer of volume and texture to the ensemble. The contrast between the sober, ornamented exterior and the exuberant, flamboyant interior is a fascinating reflection of the complex and layered nature of fashion during this time. This photograph, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the rich history of French fashion during the late 1590s. The image not only showcases the intricacies of the clothing but also highlights the contrasting elements that defined the fashion of the era. The Frenchwoman in this photograph embodies the opulence and sophistication of the time, a testament to the enduring allure of historical fashion.
