1835 Anglaise Bodice Corded Cuffs Docked Habit Imbecile Romantic Saddle Sentimental Sleeves Tail Trim Trot Veil Worn
EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 1835 riding habit, titled "Le Trot a L'Anglaise," showcases the elegant and romantic style of women's equestrian fashion during the early 19th century. The blue habit is adorned with full sleeves, white imbecile cuffs, and a collar, adding a touch of sophistication and elegance to the military-style corded trim on the bodice. The corded trim, a popular trend during this period, adds texture and visual interest to the garment. The habit is worn with a top hat, adding a sense of formality and grandeur to the outfit. A veil completes the look, adding a sentimental touch and a sense of mystery. The side saddle, with its docked tail, is a practical and stylish choice for riding. The "imbecile" cuffs and collar refer to the use of white fabric in contrast to the blue habit, a fashion trend that emerged in the early 1800s. The term "imbecile" was used to describe the contrasting white fabric, but the trend was popular among the fashionable elite of the time. This beautiful riding habit, with its romantic and classic design, is a testament to the elegance and sophistication of women's fashion during the 1830s. The habit is a reminder of the importance of horses in the lives of the aristocracy and the role they played in shaping fashion trends during this period. The image captures the spirit of the time, with its blend of practicality, style, and romance.
