"Elisabeth McClellan: A Journey Through Time and Fashion" Step into the world as we explore her fascinating life through a collection of historical portraits and clothing from different eras. In the portrait of Sir Edwin Sandys, with his turned-down ruff, dating back to the 16th century, we catch a glimpse of the elegance and refinement that characterized this period. The unknown artist skillfully captures Sir Edwin's regal presence. Moving forward in time, we encounter clothing worn during the reigns of Charles I, Charles II, and James II. This collection from the early modern era showcases intricate designs and luxurious fabrics that were favored by royalty and nobility. Samuel Sewall's portrait takes us into the 18th century with his periwig hairstyle and long coat. This style was popular among gentlemen during this period when fashion became more elaborate. The children's clothing from 1800-1820 gives us insight into how young ones dressed in earlier centuries. Cecil W Trout's creations reflect both simplicity and elegance in their design. Robert Livingston's velvet suit from around 1740 exudes opulence and sophistication. It symbolizes wealth and status during this time when fabric choices played a significant role in defining one's social standing. A flying Josie worn in Pennsylvania during the late 18th century adds an element of whimsy to our journey through Elisabeth McClellan's wardrobe. Its vibrant colors capture attention while showcasing regional variations in fashion trends. George Percy's portrait presents him wearing a full shirt made of Holland linen paired with a doublet - an ensemble typical for men during the early 17th century. The painting offers valuable insights into daily attire at that time. Cecil W Trout strikes again with children’s clothing from 1850-1860, displaying delicate details such as lace collars or embroidered patterns on dresses—a testament to the evolving fashion trends for young ones.
