EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the charming streets of Paris during August, 1865, as this exquisite photograph print captures the essence of French fashion at its finest. Four stunning outfits are showcased in intricate detail, each one a testament to the elegance and sophistication that defined haute couture during this era.
The first ensemble is a walking dress fit for everyday elegance - a plain slate- coloured foulard robe paired with a blue silk casaque adorned with black passementerie trim. The simplicity of the small bonnet adds an understated touch, allowing the wearer's beauty to shine through.
Next, we find ourselves in front of a morning dress that exudes warmth and comfort. A nankeen-coloured taffeta robe is ornamented with ruching and trimmed over seams, while a rice-chip bonnet adorned with black lace and Indian corn motifs adds an air of whimsy to the overall design.
For those seeking inspiration for their seaside attire, look no further than this light grey muslin ensemble. The skirt's blue silk cording trim is both playful and sophisticated, finishing in tassels that add a touch of drama to the overall effect. A pale rose-coloured parasol with carved wooden handle completes the look.
Last but not least, we have an adorable outfit for a little boy - all grey jean from head to toe! The striped vest and trousers are fastened with coral buttons, while a red worsted cravat adds a pop of colour to this charming ensemble. A black straw Derby hat adorned with scarlet silk trim brings the look together in perfect harmony.
This photograph print is not only a testament to Parisian fashion's golden era but also an invitation for us all to step into the past and experience its beauty firsthand.
