EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning day dress from the 1840s, made of printed wool fabric. The English School of the 19th century skillfully crafted this fashionable garment, which is now housed in the Fashion Museum Bath. The dress features a cinched waist that accentuates the female figure, while its striped pattern adds a touch of elegance and sophistication. The flared sleeves and full skirt create a sense of movement and grace when worn. Modesty is key in this Victorian-era attire, as it covers the body fully with its floor-length design. The decorative floral motif further enhances its stylish appeal, making it an ornate and fashionable choice for any occasion. It's worth noting that roller printing was used to create this exquisite piece - an innovative technique invented at the end of the 18th century that revolutionized fabric printing. Thanks to Miss Ingleby's generous gift, we can now admire this remarkable example of historical fashion at eFashion Museum Bath. This print by Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate every intricate detail without mentioning any commercial use or company affiliation. Step back in time with this extraordinary representation of Victorian style and immerse yourself in an era where garments were not only functional but also works of art.
