EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases an exquisite ball gown from the House of Worth, designed by Jean-Philippe Worth in 1902-03. The image, captured by a talented French photographer of the 20th century, is now part of the Fashion Museum Bath's collection. The album page itself is made of paper and card, adorned with intricate ink detailing. As for the dress, it is crafted from luxurious silk satin and silk net (tulle), embellished with delicate lace, sequins, silk ribbon, fabric flowers, glass beads, and metal aiguillette tips. Gown number 845 on this album page features a stunning white satin fabric embroidered with swags and ropes in gold beads. Its low neckline accentuates elegance while shoulder straps adorned with lace frills and silk pendants add a touch of femininity. The pouched bodice includes a beautiful fabric rose as its centerpiece. The trained skirt opens at the front to reveal pleated net underskirt details. Lace trims complete this masterpiece. This photograph perfectly captures the timeless style and sophistication that define evening dresses from this era. It serves as both an inspiration for contemporary fashion designers and a testament to the enduring allure of historical fashion trends. This remarkable piece exemplifies why House of Worth remains one of Paris' most renowned design houses since its establishment in 1858 by Charles Frederick Worth himself.
