EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the elegance and sophistication of women's fashion in the late 19th century, specifically in the year 1899. The subject wears a beautiful Green and Yellow Polonaise Dress, a popular style during the Edwardian and Victorian eras. The open-body design of the dress features a high collar, 3/4 length sleeves, and an accodian pleated under-skirt with a flounce and ruched trim. The color combination of green and yellow adds a fresh and vibrant touch to the classic design. The model accessorizes the dress with a matching hat adorned with fabric trim and plumes, adding an air of refinement and elegance to her ensemble. A pink flower is delicately placed in her hair, adding a touch of femininity and playfulness to the look. The Polonaise dress was a favorite among women during this time period, as it allowed for freedom of movement while still maintaining a formal and elegant appearance. The fluted and frilly design of the skirt and the intricate guipure trim on the bodice add to the ornate and detailed nature of the dress. The model holds a parasol, a necessary accessory for women during this time to protect themselves from the sun's harsh rays. The use of parasols was not only practical but also added an element of style and sophistication to women's fashion. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the rich history of women's fashion during the late 1800s, a time when elegance, refinement, and attention to detail were paramount. The intricate designs and vibrant colors of the dress, hat, and parasol showcase the artistry and craftsmanship of the time, making this a truly captivating and timeless image.
