"Muff: A Journey Through Art and Fashion" Step into the world of art and fashion as we explore the captivating history of the muff. From its humble beginnings in the 19th century to its iconic status today, this accessory has left an indelible mark on culture. In 1863, John Everett Millais unveiled "My First Sermon, " a painting that captured a young girl clutching her muff tightly, symbolizing innocence and purity. The following year, he continued his exploration with "My Second Sermon, " showcasing a woman adorned in fashionable attire with her muff serving as both a practical hand-warmer and stylish accessory. Fast forward to 1947 when muffs made their way onto the pages of Britannia and Eve magazine. Women donning hobble skirts were seen elegantly holding their muffs, exuding grace and sophistication. The allure of muffs extended beyond paintings and magazines; they became an integral part of everyday life. In parks across Europe, ladies strolled alongside their beloved Borzois while keeping warm with their trusty muffs by their side. Children too found joy in this versatile accessory. Two little ones sat gleefully on a swing, gripping onto their muffs for dear life as they soared through the air - a testament to the enduring appeal of this timeless item. Muffs even played significant roles in historical events. Victoria and Disraeli were often depicted together wearing matching outfits complete with luxurious fur muffs – a symbol of power and unity between these influential figures. Lady Duff Gordon was another prominent figure who embraced the elegance offered by muffs. Her impeccable sense of style elevated these accessories from mere hand-warmers to coveted fashion statements among high society circles. Music cover illustrations also showcased women gracefully gliding on ice while clutching their furry companions - highlighting how even during leisurely activities like ice skating, one could remain chic thanks to the trusty muff by her side. The influence of muffs extended beyond the realm of fashion.
