EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning low-cut lilac ball dress from the year 1891 is a beautiful example of the elegant and ornate fashion of the late Victorian and early Edwardian eras. The dress features a tucker, a decorative band that gathers the neckline and can be adjusted to reveal different degrees of cleavage, adding an element of allure and sophistication. The pleated bodice front is adorned with gold ornaments, which are used to pin up the skirt and reveal an intricately embroidered under-skirt. The open waistcoat, which is worn over the corset, adds an extra layer of texture and detail, while the puffed sleeves add a playful and feminine touch. The dress is further embellished with passementerie, which is a type of decorative trim made of braid, fringe, or other ornamental materials. The seaweed and coral motifs on the passementerie add a touch of natural beauty and elegance to the dress. The swansdown material used for the underskirt adds a soft and luxurious texture, making this dress a true work of art. The 1890s were a time of great innovation and experimentation in fashion, and this dress is a testament to the creativity and craftsmanship of the era. The low-cut neckline and revealing under-skirt were daring for the time, and the use of gold ornaments and intricate embroidery show the attention to detail and artistry that went into creating these beautiful garments. This dress is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of fashion, and a reminder of the beauty and elegance of the Victorian and Edwardian eras.
