EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - an exquisite Watteau sacque, part of the wedding outfit worn by Mrs. William West in 1752. The photograph, taken in 1937, beautifully captures the intricate details of this eighteenth-century gown. The sacque, with its full-length floral patterned fabric and pleated design, epitomizes the elegance and grandeur of Georgian fashion. Its flowing silhouette was highly fashionable during that era and symbolized social status and refinement. Mrs. William West, formerly known as Mary Hodge from Hope Lodge in White Marsh, Pennsylvania, donned this stunning ensemble on her special day over two centuries ago. This image is sourced from "History of American Costume - Book One 1607-1800" by Elisabeth McClellan (Tudor Publishing Company). Through this photograph's lens, we are transported back to a time when colonial America was still under British rule. It serves as a tangible reminder of our country's rich heritage and the influence that European fashion had on early American society. As we gaze upon this antique treasure captured in black and white tones, it evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era filled with grace and sophistication. This extraordinary snapshot offers us an opportunity to appreciate the artistry behind historical clothing while honoring those who came before us in shaping our nation's identity.
