Victorian Era Fashion: Historic Clothing

417

When we talk about vintage fashion, we cannot just ignore the Victorian era. The image of a woman decked in long ruffled dress of silk and organdy and holding a parasol would let us know about the Victorian Era fashion.

During this era, clothes were not only intended to look attractive, but were cut in detail to form a classic silhouette. With the boom of industrial revolution in England, clothes were more elaborate and extravagant.

The gowns which women wore in this era comprised of several pieces worn under the dress. Those dresses and stockings were cut in different styles to flaunt the figure in a modest way. The undergarments/corsets usually had whale bones to give the desired shape to the dress.

A woman had to wear a total of 8 pieces to complete her attire and these include drawers, slip, corset, petticoat, camisole, bustle or polisón, underskirt and jacket/T-shirt.
