EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning fashion plate, titled "Promenade Dress," is an exquisite example of women's fashion in the 1820s, as depicted in Rudolph Ackermann's renowned publication. Created in 1828, this hand-colored engraving on paper showcases a fashionable woman dressed in the latest trends of the Regency era. The woman wears an empire gown with a high waistline and a full, voluminous skirt, which was a popular silhouette during this period. The gown is adorned with intricate floral patterns and features a buttoned front, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication. She also wears a pelisse, a long, fitted coat, which is often worn as an outer layer to keep warm. The woman's hat, with its wide brim and ribbon detailing, complements the dress perfectly. She carries a hand warmer, a practical accessory for keeping her hands warm while strolling in the park or promenade. The dress is completed with a robe, a long, loose-fitting garment worn over the gown, which was a common addition to women's fashion during this time. This fashion plate, which is part of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's collection, is a testament to the intricate detail and beauty of 19th-century fashion. The use of color and line engraving adds depth and texture to the image, making it a true work of art. The woman's confident and graceful pose further highlights the elegance and allure of the dress, making it a must-see for anyone interested in fashion history.
