Afternoon Dress | c. 1883⠀ ——⠀ This dress was conceived as the second bustle period was beginning to emerge. The very brief époque between 1880-1884 created some awkward silhouettes as the curaiss bodice was still very much worn while the bustle was burgeoning on the back. Sometimes creating what can only be described as low, lusciously fabricated lumps that didn’t flatter. This sumptuous, aubergine example is definitely an instance where the proportions of the conflicting designs came to fruition in harmony. ⠀ ⠀ (@themintmuseum 2010.37a-c)⠀ ——⠀ #fashion #dress #victorianfashion #victorian #bustle #glamour #beauty #ootd #curaissbody #style #design #costume #purple #aubergine# #color #art #mode #moda #velvet #silk #mintmuseum #museum https://www.instagram.com/p/B3R3-xTg8Oh/?igshid=1j5hq2h61q49n -- source link
