EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image from 1897, showcasing the Kendal Combinations offered by Milne of Manchester. This elegant Victorian-era advertisement displays a selection of combinations and vests, available in both cambric and silk. The intricate lace detailing on the vests and the delicate embroidery on the drawers add a touch of femininity and refinement to these essential undergarments. The Kendal Combinations were a popular choice for women during the late 19th century, providing both comfort and style. The cambric combinations featured in the advertisement are made from a lightweight, breathable fabric that would have been ideal for wearing under heavy Victorian dresses. The silk combinations, on the other hand, would have been reserved for more formal occasions or as a luxurious treat. The image also highlights the versatility of the Kendal Combinations, as they could be worn with or without a corset, depending on the desired level of support and comfort. The combinations served as both underwear and innerwear, making them an essential part of a woman's wardrobe during this era. Milne of Manchester was a reputable clothing retailer during the late 1800s, known for their high-quality garments and innovative designs. This advertisement showcases their commitment to providing women with a range of stylish and functional undergarments that catered to the fashion trends of the time. This photograph offers a glimpse into the world of Victorian fashion and the importance of undergarments in shaping the silhouette and overall appearance of women's clothing during this period. The intricate details and elegant design of the Kendal Combinations continue to captivate us today, making this a truly fascinating piece of fashion history.
