EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases an exquisite mother-and-child pair dressed in Victorian fashion from the year 1866. The woman wears a stunning striped basque-habit dress, featuring a low-cut Swiss body, gored skirt, and front buttoning. The vertical stripes add an element of sophistication and elegance to her attire, while the basque-habit style, popular during the Victorian era, accentuates the waistline. The skirt of her dress is adorned with ruching and rosettes, adding a delicate and intricate touch to the ensemble. The woman's dress also includes a corselet or cup, which was commonly worn to enhance the hourglass figure and provide support. She accessorizes her outfit with a necklace and earrings, adding a touch of glamour to her appearance. The young boy in the photograph wears a jacket with strap-like trim, adding a playful and charming contrast to the formal attire of his mother. The jacket's design, with its subtle echo of the stripes on the woman's dress, creates a cohesive and visually pleasing composition. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of Victorian fashion, with its intricate details and attention to design. The striped dress, with its basque-habit style and Swiss body, is a testament to the elegance and sophistication of women's fashion during this period. The inclusion of the young boy adds a delightful touch of childhood innocence to the image, making it a truly captivating and timeless piece.
