EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored fashion plate illustration, titled "Woman in the Costume of Lisieux," showcases the elegant attire of women from the town of Lisieux, located in the Calvados region of France. Dating back to the late 19th century, this engraved image is taken from Louis-Marie Lante's "Costumes des femmes du Pays de Caux," published around 1885. The woman in the illustration is adorned in traditional clothing from the area, including a high-waisted dress with a full skirt, a fitted bodice, and a long, flowing apron. Her most striking accessory, however, is the tall Alsatian lace hat, also known as a bonnet de lace or a bonnet papillon, due to its butterfly-like shape. The intricate lace design of the hat and the delicate, hand-embroidered details on the apron and cuffs are characteristic of the region's rich textile heritage. The women of Caux and Normandy were renowned for their fashionable and elegant appearance, and their tall lace hats were a symbol of their refined taste. This image offers a glimpse into the history and culture of the region, providing a fascinating insight into the fashion trends and traditions of the time. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this handcolored plate make it a beautiful and captivating addition to any collection of historical fashion or French cultural art.
