EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored fashion plate illustration, titled "Costumes des femmes du Pays de Caux" and created by Louis-Marie Lantes in 1827 or 1885, showcases the elegant and stylish traditional attire of women from the area of Dieppe, located in Normandy, France. The image features a woman wearing a bonnet adorned with intricately designed papillon wings, which are folded gracefully towards the front. The tall Alsatian lace hats of the women from Caux and Normandy were renowned for their sophistication and beauty during this era. The bonnet's papillon wings, a distinctive feature of the regional costume, were made from layers of lace that were carefully folded and shaped to create the winged effect. The woman's outfit is completed with a high-necked blouse and a long, full skirt, both adorned with delicate lace trim. The overall effect of this fashion plate is one of timeless elegance and refinement, transporting us back to a bygone era of French fashion and tradition.
