EDITORS COMMENTS
This image from the annals of 1846 fashion, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases two elegant women in stunning Victorian attire. The first woman wears a pink dress adorned with four scallop-edged flounces that add a playful touch to the otherwise formal outfit. The dress features tight-fitting sleeves with volans, adding an air of sophistication and grace. The woman completes her ensemble with a net pelerine, a fashionable accessory that was popular during this era. Her hair is styled to cover her ears, a common practice during the Victorian period. The second woman in the photograph dons a green dress, which she pairs with a shawl and a bonnet. The dress, with its flowing lines and simple design, is a beautiful contrast to the intricacy of the pink dress. The woman's hair is also styled in a Victorian manner, with a bonnet that adds a touch of femininity and charm to her appearance. The women are depicted in a grand setting, with a balloon-backed chair adding an element of luxury and opulence to the scene. The gothic architecture in the background further emphasizes the Victorian era's maternal and romantic sensibilities. The women's attire, with its intricate details and elegant designs, reflects the fashion trends of the time and offers a glimpse into the rich history of women's fashion in the mid-19th century.
