EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning Autumn Dress from the year 1899, captured in this vintage photograph from Mary Evans Picture Library, showcases the elegance and intricacy of women's fashion during the late Victorian era. The dress, a beautiful blend of grey and black hues, is an open-bodice design with an embroidered revers that adds a touch of sophistication and detail. The short cape, adorned with intricate embroidery, is a charming addition that not only adds to the overall aesthetic of the dress but also provides an extra layer of warmth for the chilly autumn weather. The gored skirt of the dress is contained to the knee with cords and buttons, adding a practical yet stylish touch. Below the knee, the skirt flares out in wide pleated panels, giving the dress a voluminous and graceful silhouette. The woman in the photograph holds a parasol, shielding herself from the sun or rain, while the stuffed bird with outstretched wings and feathers on her hat adds a whimsical and playful element to the image. The attention to detail in this 1899 Autumn Dress is evident in the intricate embroidery on the revers, the delicate pleats of the skirt, and the elegant design of the hat. The fashion of the late 1890s was characterized by its opulence and intricacy, and this dress is a perfect representation of that era's style and elegance. This photograph is a captivating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the fashion trends and aesthetic sensibilities of the late Victorian era.
