1. Title: "A Victorian Lady's Stroll: An Elegant Grey Walking Dress with Lace Ruff and Fur Accessories, 1840" This photograph from the Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back in time to the Victorian era, showcasing the refined elegance and intricate details of women's fashion during the early 19th century. The central figure in this image wears a stunning grey walking dress, featuring a single flounce and bouillon (puffing) on the skirt, adding volume and movement to her steps. The dress is further adorned with a delicate lace ruff, which frames her neck and shoulders, enhancing her feminine silhouette. The lady's ensemble is completed with a brown fur muff and a fur-trimmed pelerine-mantlet, providing both warmth and style. The pelerine-mantlet, a versatile outerwear piece, can be worn draped over the shoulders or attached to the dress with brooches, as seen in this photograph. The broad-brimmed bonnet, adorned with plumes, completes the look, adding a touch of gothic charm and sophistication. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of Victorian fashion, showcasing the intricate details and textures that defined the era. The grey walking dress, with its single flounce and bouillon, was a popular choice for women during this time, allowing them to maintain their elegance while navigating the uneven terrain of the streets. The addition of the lace ruff, fur muff, and pelerine-mantlet further elevated the style and practicality of the dress, making it a must-have for any well-dressed Victorian lady.
