The Style of the Future, 1889
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating snapshot into the fashion trends and societal norms of late 19th century France. This print, sourced from Figaro Exposition and published by Simpkin, Marshall, Hamilton, Kent and Co in London in 1889, offers a glimpse into the evolving style choices of women during this period. In this portrait, we see an elegant French woman confidently standing with her walking cane while sporting a striking ensemble that epitomizes Victorian fashion. Her dress exudes sophistication with its intricate detailing and vibrant color palette. The attention to detail extends to her accessories - she wears spectacles perched delicately on her nose and holds a lorgnette (a type of eyeglass) in one hand. This image not only showcases the sartorial preferences of the time but also hints at the changing roles of women in society. The lady's confident stance suggests independence and self-assurance amidst a rapidly transforming world. The artist behind this intriguing piece remains unknown; however, their ability to capture both style and character is evident. As we admire "The Style of the Future" we are transported back to an era where fashion was not merely about clothing but also served as a means for individuals to express themselves within their social context. This print serves as a valuable historical artifact that allows us to reflect upon how fashion has evolved over time while reminding us that personal style has always been intertwined with individual identity.
