EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this stunning full-length travelling costume from the year 1899. The double-breasted coat, featuring patch pockets, is crafted from black seamless fabric, creating a sleek and elegant silhouette. The jacket bodice boasts short tails, a simulated open front, and revers, adding an air of sophistication and mystery. The puffed sleeves, a popular design element of the Victorian and Edwardian eras, complete the look. This costume, with its intricate details and timeless beauty, transports us back to a bygone era. Imagine standing on a balcony in Switzerland, overlooking the breathtaking Alpine scenery, as the sun sets and the cool mountain air brushes against your skin. The coat, with its practical yet fashionable design, would have been the perfect choice for a woman of means travelling through Europe during this period. The coat's buckles and paste buttons add an extra touch of elegance and refinement, making this a truly special piece of historical fashion. This photograph, captured in 1899, offers a glimpse into the past and the fashion trends of the time. It is a reminder of the rich history of women's fashion and the importance of preserving these precious moments for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
