EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1882 print from Mary Evans Prints Online showcases a stunning representation of 1840s fashion, as depicted in the late 1850s. The elegant woman in the image wears a grey dress in the style of a redingote, a popular design during the mid-19th century. The redingote is characterized by its long, coat-like silhouette, with a waistline that is defined by a belt or sash. In this instance, the grey dress is accentuated by the contrast of its white engageantes, or under sleeves, adding a touch of refinement and delicacy to the overall look. The woman's outfit is further accessorized with a white bonnet adorned with golden ears of wheat. This intricate headpiece adds a rustic and natural touch to the ensemble, reflecting the agricultural themes that were prevalent during this period. The bonnet's golden hue complements the grey dress beautifully, creating a harmonious color palette. The woman holds a parasol, a staple accessory for Victorian-era women, which provides both shade and an additional layer of elegance. The parasol's golden handle adds a subtle yet noticeable contrast to the grey and white tones of her outfit. The ruching on the sleeves and bodice of the dress, as well as the intricate detailing on the bonnet, highlight the meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail that were hallmarks of Victorian fashion. This print offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of women's fashion during the 1840s and 1850s, showcasing the elegance, refinement, and natural beauty that defined this era. The use of golden accents, from the wheat ears on the bonnet to the parasol handle, adds a touch of sophistication and luxury to the overall look, making this an exquisite and captivating image.
