EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite lithograph captures the elegance and sophistication of a woman dressed in a half-redingote and bonnet inspired by Calpigi. Her canary yellow English-style taffeta dress exudes luxury, while her blue silk cap adds a touch of whimsy to her ensemble. The attention to detail is impeccable, with collar and buttons in different colors adding depth to the outfit.
The woman's hair is styled in curls fixed with a Cagliostro pin, showcasing the intricate hairstyles of the time. This image is a snapshot of fashion from Marie Antoinette's era, as depicted in "Fashions and Customs of Marie Antoinette and her Times" by Le Comte de Reiset.
As a dressmaker and linen-merchant to the Queen and ladies of the court, Madame Eloffe would have been well-versed in creating such stunning garments. The vibrant colors and luxurious fabrics used in this ensemble speak to the opulence of 18th-century fashion at Versailles.
This print transports us back in time to an era where style was everything, and every detail mattered. It serves as a reminder of the artistry and craftsmanship that went into creating fashionable attire for noblewomen during this period.
