EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting image of a woman in a plum-colored dress from the late 1890s, available as a print from Mary Evans Prints Online. The side-buttoning dress features a yoke, cuffs, and hem in contrasting colors, adding an elegant touch to the outfit. The skirt fits tightly at the waist and flares out at the back, creating an hourglass silhouette. The hem of the skirt boasts a beautiful scallop design, adding a feminine and playful element to the ensemble. The woman accessorizes her outfit with a mink-faced muff and a fur boa, both common accessories during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The muff not only kept her hands warm but also added a touch of luxury and sophistication to her attire. The fur boa, draped around her shoulders, accentuated her figure and added a sense of drama to her look. The woman's hat is adorned with plumes and an aigrette, adding height and elegance to her silhouette. The felt hat was a popular choice during the late 1890s and early 1900s, and the addition of plumes and an aigrette made it a must-have accessory for any well-dressed woman during promenades and social events. This photograph captures the essence of the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, a time of opulence, elegance, and refinement. The woman's outfit, with its intricate details and luxurious fabrics, reflects the extravagance and sophistication of the time. This print is a must-have for anyone interested in fashion history, Victorian and Edwardian costumes, or simply for those who appreciate the beauty and elegance of the past.
