1778 Aristocrat Elaborate Fashionably Skirt Strange Topped Wings
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back to the year 1778, where we are introduced to a French woman of aristocratic descent. Dressed in a fashionably bulked-out skirt that exudes opulence and extravagance, she embodies the epitome of high society fashion during this historical period.
Her elaborate hair-do is a work of art in itself, intricately styled and adorned with accessories that speak to her status as a member of the elite class. However, it is the strange head-dress with net-like wings perched atop her head that truly captures our attention. This unique accessory adds an element of whimsy and intrigue to her ensemble, showcasing her daring sense of style and willingness to push boundaries when it comes to fashion.
As we gaze upon this portrait, we are transported into a world where women's clothing was not just about covering the body but making a statement - reflecting their wealth, social standing, and personal taste. The intricate details of her costume serve as a reminder of the craftsmanship and artistry that went into creating these garments.
Through this photo print, we catch a glimpse of history through the lens of fashion - where every ruffle, ribbon, and embellishment tells a story about the wearer and their place in society.
