EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a corset fitting session at Leoty's in 1895. The French School of the 19th century beautifully portrays the artistry of dressmaking and craftsmanship during this era. Located in Paris, France, Leoty's was renowned for its exquisite beauty accessories, particularly corsets. In the image, we see a group of women gathered around a large mirror as they meticulously fit and adjust corsets on mannequins. The attention to detail is evident as each woman delicately works with precision and expertise. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into the world of fashion at that time - where every stitch mattered. The use of photography adds an intriguing element to this historical scene. Leonard de Selva skillfully captures the essence of this moment through his lens, freezing it in time for future generations to appreciate. The autochrome technique used here lends an ethereal quality to the image, enhancing its artistic appeal. As we observe this photograph, we are reminded not only of the importance placed on fashion during this period but also how undergarments like corsets played a significant role in shaping women's silhouettes. It serves as a testament to both the evolution of lingerie design and society's standards of beauty throughout history. This remarkable print from Fine Art Finder allows us to immerse ourselves in an era long gone by while appreciating the timeless elegance captured within its frame.
