EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning fashion plate, titled "London Walking Dress for September 1807," is an exquisite example of early 19th century fashion as depicted by renowned British engraver, John Bell. The intricately detailed hand-coloured engraving on paper captures the essence of the fashionable woman's attire during this period. The dress, an empire gown with an empire line, features a simple yet elegant design with a fitted bodice, full skirt, and a long, flowing shawl. The fashion plate also showcases a fashionable hat adorned with a ribbon and feathers, and a robe or coat for added warmth and sophistication. The setting of the plate is equally captivating, with the woman seated on a beautiful settee, surrounded by ornate furniture and a colorful, patterned wallpaper. The dress, with its muted color palette, complements the rich hues of the background. This fashion plate provides a glimpse into the world of 19th century British fashion, offering a glimpse into the elegance and refinement of the time. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) houses this historic artifact, preserving it for future generations to appreciate and study. The fashion plate serves as a reminder of the importance of fashion as a reflection of history and culture.
