EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a ladies costume from the early 16th century, specifically during the reign of Henry VII. The intricate details of this ensemble are beautifully captured by Emily Jessie Ashdown, an unknown creator who has left a lasting legacy through her work. The woman in the center wears a stunning dress that epitomizes the fashion trends of that era. One notable feature is the train of her dress, which is elegantly looped up through her girdle at the back. This clever design element adds both practicality and visual appeal to her attire. The headdress worn by this lady further enhances her regal appearance, emphasizing her status and sophistication. The photograph comes from "British Costume during 19 Centuries" by Mrs Charles H Ashdown, published in London in 1910. It offers us a glimpse into England's rich sartorial history and serves as a testament to the timeless allure of traditional clothing. As we admire this monochrome image, we can't help but appreciate how fashion has evolved over time while still drawing inspiration from past centuries. This print reminds us of the creativity and craftsmanship that went into creating garments for women throughout history. It invites us to delve deeper into our cultural heritage and explore how clothing shapes our identity as individuals and societies alike.
