EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph captures the elegance and opulence of a dress from the reign of George IV, dating back to 1820-1830. The woman depicted is adorned in a feathered headdress, high-waisted gown, embroidered skirt, gloves, and fan - showcasing the height of fashion during this period.
The design of the dress is based on garments preserved after the first Dressingroom held by King George IV himself. It was during this time that hoops were abolished by royal command, leading to a shift in silhouette towards a more streamlined and tailored look.
The intricate details of the embroidery and luxurious fabrics used in this ensemble speak to the wealth and status of those who would have worn such attire during this era. The woman exudes grace and sophistication as she poses for the artist's rendering.
This print is part of a larger collection titled "Costumes of British Ladies from the Time of William I to Queen Victoria," published in London in 1840 by Dickinson and Son. It serves as both a historical record and an artistic representation of fashion trends from centuries past.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an age where clothing was not just functional but also served as a symbol of social standing and cultural norms. The beauty captured in this lithograph reminds us of the enduring allure of vintage fashion.
