EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of men's fashion from 1855, showcasing the trend of adopting elements of contemporary female styles. The two coats depicted in this photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, represent the innovative and daring sartorial choices of the Victorian era. From the rear view, we observe the distinctive pagoda or funnel sleeves, a popular female fashion of the time, which have been skillfully incorporated into the design of these men's coats. The frontal perspective reveals the full extent of these unique sleeves, which flare outwards from the shoulders and narrow towards the wrist, creating an intriguing contrast to the traditional, close-fitting silhouette of men's clothing. One of the coats showcases an additional detail that highlights the influence of female fashion: an embroidered stand collar. This elegant feature, adorned with intricate patterns, was a common element in women's garments during this period and added a touch of refinement and sophistication to the male attire. Another notable feature of the coats is the presence of a naval air, which can be observed in the cut and design of the garments. This style, characterized by a fitted waist and full skirt, was popular among sailors and naval officers, making it a natural choice for men seeking to emulate the latest trends. The men in this photograph also sport moustaches, adding a distinctly masculine touch to their otherwise feminine-inspired outfits. The combination of these elements – the influence of female fashion, the naval air, and the moustaches – creates a fascinating snapshot of the complex and ever-evolving world of Victorian fashion.
