EDITORS COMMENTS
This fashion plate, titled "Female Costume of Egra - London Morning Dress," dates back to 1808 and is an exquisite example of the elegant and fashionable attire of the time. The image, which is one month ahead of its publication in La Belle Assemblee, showcases a well-dressed woman in the latest London morning dress. The dress, characterized by its green color and white trim, is adorned with intricate textures and patterns, reflecting the high class and refined taste of the era. The lady's headdress, featuring a white fabric band and green ribbons, complements the dress perfectly. The fashion plate, which is a hand-coloured engraving on paper, showcases the attention to detail and artistry of the time. The line engraving, with its delicate and precise lines, highlights the shape and form of the dress and the woman's figure. The green color, a popular choice for morning dresses during this period, adds a touch of freshness and vitality to the image. The fashion plate provides a glimpse into the social and cultural norms of the time, offering insights into the fashion trends and preferences of the upper class in England during the 19th century. Today, this heritage art piece is preserved and cherished at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences with its timeless beauty and elegance.
