EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Crinoline Prevents Kiss" from Mary Evans Picture Library, we are transported back to the year 1858 where Adolphus finds himself foiled in his attempts to obtain a kiss from his beloved. The new fashion trend of crinolines is proving to be a barrier to matrimony and intimacy between the sexes.
The image captures the frustration and inconvenience faced by Adolphus as he struggles to navigate the space created by the voluminous crinoline worn by women during that era. The historical significance of this piece lies in its portrayal of how personal relationships were hindered by societal norms and fashion choices.
As Adolphus reaches out for a kiss, he is met with an invisible barrier created by the elaborate costume worn by his beloved. The Victorian era was known for its strict social etiquette and adherence to propriety, making it difficult for couples like Adolphus and his beloved to express their affection openly.
Through this poignant image, we are reminded of how clothing can not only reflect but also shape cultural norms and expectations surrounding intimacy and relationships. The struggle depicted in "Crinoline Prevents Kiss" serves as a powerful reminder of the complexities inherent in navigating love and courtship within different historical contexts.
