EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dated May 1870, showcases a delightful gathering of fashionable women from the early 1870s. The image transports us back in time to an era of elegance and refinement, as the ladies don their finest Victorian attire. The women, adorned in their intricately designed gowns, exude an air of sophistication and grace. The fashionable silhouette of the time is evident in their full, voluminous skirts, which were achieved through the use of bustles. These bustles, often made of horsehair or other stiff materials, were worn at the back of the dress to create the illusion of a fuller figure. The bodices of their dresses are fitted and accentuated by the use of corsets, which were essential in achieving the desired hourglass shape. Jackets, worn over the bodices, were also a popular addition to the outfit, providing both warmth and an extra layer of style. The ladies' hats, adorned with ribbons, flowers, and feathers, add a touch of whimsy to their ensembles. Their parasols, a staple accessory for women of the time, not only protected them from the sun but also added an element of charm to their appearance. The influence of Parisian fashion is evident in the ladies' elegant attire. Paris, the fashion capital of the world, set the trends for the European elite, and these women proudly displayed their adherence to the latest styles. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of fashionable women during the early 1870s, a time when elegance, refinement, and an appreciation for beauty reigned supreme.
