EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite ball gown from the House of Worth, dating back to 1905-06. The photograph was taken by a talented French photographer in the 20th century and is now part of the Fashion Museum Bath collection. The designer behind this stunning creation is none other than Jean-Philippe Worth, a prominent figure in fashion history. The House of Worth, founded in Paris in 1858, became synonymous with luxury and elegance during its time. The album page itself is made of photographic paper and card, adorned with intricate ink detailing. As for the costume featured on the page, it is crafted from silk satin and silk net (tulle), embellished with fabric flowers and beaded motifs. Diamantes add a touch of sparkle to this already glamorous ensemble. The ball gown itself boasts a square-necked asymmetrically draped bodice, complemented by frilled shoulder straps and off-the-shoulder short sleeves. Its trained floor-length skirt features ruffled net and ribbon tiers that create movement as one glides across the dance floor. This photograph captures not only the style but also the essence of early 20th-century fashion. It serves as a testament to timeless elegance while showcasing how design elements such as draping, tiering, and embellishments can elevate an evening dress into a work of art.
