EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from 1860 showcases two elegant women and a child donning the latest fashions of the time. The trio exudes sophistication as they proudly display their crinoline skirts, which were all the rage during this era. These voluminous skirts were enhanced by layered ruffles, creating an illusion of even greater fullness. The women's attire reflects the Victorian fashion trends prevalent in the 19th century. Their beautifully tailored bodices are adorned with delicate lace and ribbons, adding a touch of femininity to their outfits. Their hairstyles are meticulously styled, featuring intricate headdresses that complement their overall look. The child in this image is also dressed impeccably, showcasing how even young ones embraced fashionable clothing during this period. This lithograph captures not only the evolution of fashion but also provides a glimpse into society at that time. Preserved by the Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this anonymous artwork transports us back to an era where elegance and refinement reigned supreme. It serves as a reminder of how fashion has evolved over centuries while still retaining elements from our past.
