EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the elegant world of the late 19th century with this illustration of the Helene blouse, a fashionable addition to any Victorian woman's wardrobe. Dated 1895, this illustration from "Our Ladies Pages: Fashions up to Date" showcases the timeless beauty of the Helene blouse, with its high, frilled collar that adds an air of refinement and sophistication. The collar, reminiscent of the popular lace jabot, is adorned with intricate lace detailing, adding an extra layer of elegance to the design. The blouse also features puff sleeves, or "leg-o'-mutton sleeves," that add volume and fullness to the upper arms, a popular trend during the Victorian era. The corseted waist, a staple of the time, accentuates the hourglass figure and creates an hourglass silhouette. The blouse's bodice is fitted at the waist, cinching in the waistline and creating an illusion of an even slimmer figure. The Helene blouse was a must-have for any fashion-conscious woman of the time, and this illustration offers a glimpse into the fashion trends of the 1890s. With its intricate details and timeless design, this blouse remains a beloved piece of fashion history, transporting us back to a bygone era of elegance and refinement.
