EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a young woman dressed in the traditional costume of Bois d'Embourg, a region in the Pays de Caux and Normandy, France. The woman's elegant attire includes a tall bavolet bonnet, adorned with long tails of Alsatian lace. The bavolet, a distinctive hat from the region, was once a symbol of the refined and sophisticated fashion sense of the women of Caux and Normandy. The handcolored fashion plate illustration, taken from Louis-Marie Lante's "Costumes des femmes du Pays de Caux," published between 1827 and 1885, offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of this area. The intricate details of the woman's outfit, from the lace trim on her bodice and sleeves to the full skirt and petticoat, reflect the exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail that were prized during this period. The Alsatian lace, a type of bobbin lace, was renowned for its intricate patterns and delicate beauty. It was a highly valued commodity and was often used to create elaborate trimming for clothing and accessories. The lace industry in the region flourished during the 18th and 19th centuries, with Rouen, the capital city of Normandy, being a major center for lace production. This image not only captures the essence of the traditional costume of Bois d'Embourg but also serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage and history of the Pays de Caux and Normandy. The elegance and style of the women's fashion during this period continue to inspire and captivate us today.
