1859 Costume Dress Hoop Hoop Skirt Silk
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite women's fashion of 1859, capturing the essence of elegance and style from a bygone era. The illustration, sourced from an American magazine, depicts two stunning dresses furnished by a store on Canal Street in New York City. The first dress, known as a Demi-Toilette, exudes sophistication with its intricate details and luxurious silk fabric. Its form-fitting bodice accentuates the woman's figure while the flowing skirt adds grace to her every step. This ensemble epitomizes the refined taste and opulence that characterized women's fashion during this period. Accompanying the Demi-Toilette is a charming girls' dress that mirrors its adult counterpart in design and craftsmanship. It showcases how even young girls were adorned in fashionable attire back then, highlighting their place within society. The engraving captures not only the beauty of these garments but also provides insight into middle-class America's sartorial choices at that time. The hoop skirts worn beneath both dresses reflect popular trends of enhancing volume and shape. As we admire this remarkable piece of history through Granger Art on Demand, we are transported back to an era where attention to detail was paramount in dressing for any occasion. These dresses serve as reminders of the timeless allure that has always been associated with women's fashion throughout centuries past.
