EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning pair of stays from the 1780s, expertly crafted by an English School in the 18th century. Stays, also known as corsets, were essential undergarments for fashionable women during this era. Made primarily from linen or cotton, these stays were meticulously designed to provide a structured and fitted silhouette. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of these stays. Delicate straps elegantly frame the shoulders while whalebone inserts ensure a perfect fit and enhance the wearer's figure. The use of ribbons adds a touch of femininity and charm to this stylish garment. As we admire this piece from Fashion Museum Bath's collection, we are transported back in time to an era where fashion was both intricate and refined. These stays not only reflect the clothing trends of their time but also serve as a reminder of how fashion has evolved over centuries. It is fascinating to observe how undergarments like these played such a crucial role in shaping women's attire throughout history. This particular pair serves as an exquisite example of craftsmanship and design that continues to inspire contemporary fashion enthusiasts today. Through this print by Bridgeman Images, we can appreciate the artistry behind historical garments while gaining insight into our ever-evolving sense of style.
