EDITORS COMMENTS
This fashion plate, titled "Fashion Plate (London Fashionable Full Dress), 1812," is an engraved and hand-colored print from The Lady's Magazine, a popular British publication of the time. The image showcases a young woman in the latest fashion trends of the 1810s, dressed in a full-length blue gown with a yellow sash, a matching shawl, and a tall, ornate hat adorned with a bow and feathers. The woman stands confidently before a millinery shop, her hand resting on a hatstand filled with various hats, reflecting the importance of hat shopping in women's fashion during this era. The intricate detail of the print is evident in the hand-tinted colors, which bring the fabric textures and patterns to life. The woman's gown features a counter-pleated front, a high waistline, and long, flowing sleeves, all popular elements of Regency-era fashion. The print also showcases the diverse range of choices available to women in terms of color and style, as evidenced by the array of hats displayed in the shop behind her. This fashion plate offers a glimpse into the world of fashionable dress in London during the early 19th century, a time when fashion trends were closely followed and carefully chosen by women seeking to stay current and stylish. Today, this beautiful and historic print is part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it continues to inspire appreciation for the art and fashion of the past.
