EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the elegant world of Parisian fashion in April, 1860, as depicted in this stunning sketch from the monthly ladies fashion pages. The first dress, an evening gown, is a vision in the deep, rich color of Violette de Parme, with fluted silk plaiting of a slightly darker tone adding texture and depth. The headpiece, or crown, is a breathtaking display of fresh violets, forming a regal halo from which two light barbes of white and black lace cascade down. The second dress, a robe de visite, is a bold statement in dark puce velvet, trimmed with black silk for an air of sophistication. The high neckline is softened with a delicate lace collar, perfectly matching the cuffs. The bonnet, crafted from light green velvet, adds a pop of color with its shaded feathers and white lace trim. This historical sketch transports us to a time when fashion was an art form, with each detail meticulously considered for its beauty and impact. The evening dress is a work of art in itself, with its silk fabric and intricate plaiting, while the robe de visite exudes an air of mystery and allure with its dark velvet and lace collar. The headpiece, or crown, is a testament to the creativity and artistry of the fashion world during this period. This sketch is a precious glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the fashion trends of the time and the elegance and sophistication of Parisian society in the late 19th century. It is a reminder of the importance of fashion as a form of self-expression and a reflection of the cultural and social norms of the time.
