EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past and marvel at this charming selection of children's seaside costumes from the year 1879. This image, captured in a time long gone, showcases the fashionable attire that young boys and girls donned for their day at the beach during the Victorian era. The children, bundled up against the chill of the winter seaside air, are pictured wearing a variety of coats and hats. One little girl is seen wearing a long, woolen coat with a fur collar, while another sports a shorter, quilted number. The boys, too, are well-prepared for the elements, with their heavy coats and knitted hats. Despite the cold weather, the children's outfits are far from drab. The girls' dresses, though practical, are adorned with intricate details, such as lace collars and ruffles. One young girl even wears a frock with a nautical theme, complete with anchors and stripes. The boys' coats, too, display a sense of style, with some featuring decorative buttons and others boasting bold patterns. The hats, too, are a sight to behold. The girls' hats are often adorned with ribbons and bows, while the boys' hats feature distinctive shapes and designs. Each child's outfit is a testament to the care and attention given to their appearance, even during a simple day at the seaside. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion trends of the 1870s and serves as a reminder of the importance of dressing for the weather, no matter the era. Enjoy this journey back in time and let your imagination run wild as you picture these children playing and laughing on the sandy shores of the past.
