EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the elegance and sophistication of a blue bolero dress from the late Victorian and early Edwardian era, dated 1899. The dress, made of watered moire silk, features a blue tunic top with a lace-edged bolero, complete with epaulettes and tight sleeves that extend in points over the hands. The tunic is designed to be worn wrap-around style, adding an element of practicality to the ornate design. A belt with a paste buckle cinches the waist, accentuating the hourglass figure. The model's hat, with its wavy brim and intricate lace detailing, complements the dress perfectly. The mancherons, or long, flowing sleeves, commonly worn during this period, are not visible in this photograph, but the overall look is still quintessentially Victorian. This dress is a prime example of the opulence and intricacy of women's fashion during the late 19th century. The use of lace, epaulettes, and a paste buckle were popular embellishments during this time, adding an air of luxury and refinement to any outfit. This photograph is a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the fashion trends and styles of over a century ago.
