EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the visiting card of Charles Frederick Worth, a renowned French fashion designer from the 19th century. The image showcases Worth in an elaborate fancy dress costume, dating back to around 1860. The photograph was taken by a French photographer and is now held at the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. In this whimsical portrait, Worth can be seen donning an oriental-inspired ensemble complete with a moustache and sabre. His full-length attire exudes humor and exoticism, reflecting the style of the Victorian era. This playful disguise adds an element of surprise to his otherwise distinguished appearance as a couturier. The visiting card itself serves as both a personal calling card and a testament to Worth's creative flair. It offers us a glimpse into his personality beyond his professional achievements in fashion design. With its humorous undertones and attention-grabbing details, this photograph captures not only Worth's unique sense of style but also highlights the artistic possibilities within early photography techniques. As we admire this vintage print today, it reminds us of the rich history behind one of fashion's most influential figures while showcasing the creativity that transcends time through visual artistry.
