EDITORS COMMENTS
This fashion plate, dating back to the 1830s, showcases a young woman in a walking dress from The Ladies' Pocket Magazine. The full-length image, probably produced in Britain, captures the essence of the era's fashion trends with its intricate details and vibrant colors. The woman, preoccupied with a distraction, is depicted in a green promenade dress adorned with delicate lace and a matching shawl. Her bonnet, also in the same green color, complements the overall ensemble. The photomechanical print, a testament to the artistic and creative prowess of the time, highlights the elegance and sophistication of women's wear during the nineteenth century. The young woman's one-of-a-kind attire, with its full skirt and high waistline, evokes a sense of heritage and tradition. This fashion plate, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), offers a glimpse into the past and the fashionable world of the 1830s.
