A Late-Victorian Woman in Fashion: An Illustration from The Sketch Magazine (1894) This illustration, dated 1894, showcases the elegant and sophisticated style of a late-Victorian woman, as depicted in The Sketch Magazine. The woman's graceful silhouette is accentuated by the voluminous bustle that was a popular fashion trend during the late 19th century. The intricately designed gown, adorned with delicate lace and rich textures, epitomizes the opulence and elegance of the Victorian era.

Her elaborate hairstyle, featuring an intricate updo and adorned with flowers and feathers, adds to her regal appearance. The illustration masterfully captures the essence of the Victorian era, with its attention to detail and intricate design elements.

This illustration, in particular, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of late-Victorian fashion and the elegance and sophistication of the era.
