EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite French costumes worn by King Charles V and King Charles VI during the 14th century. The illustration, taken from "The History Of Fashion In France" by Augustin Challamel, Frances Cashel Hoey, and John Lillie in 1882, provides a glimpse into the rich sartorial heritage of this era. Intricately detailed and vibrant in color, these royal ensembles exude elegance and opulence. The female costume features a stunning robe adorned with fur trimmings made from luxurious ermine. A headdress known as a wimple adds an air of regality to her appearance. The male attire is equally impressive, showcasing a majestic cloak that drapes gracefully over his shoulders. With its intricate embroidery and fine craftsmanship, it reflects the grandeur befitting a king. Transporting us back to medieval France, this engraving captures not only the fashion trends of that time but also offers insight into the cultural significance attached to clothing during this period. It serves as a reminder of how garments were used as symbols of power and status. As we admire this remarkable print created by Augustin Challamel, Frances Cashel Hoey, John Lillie alongside their collaborators King Charles V and King Charles VI , we are reminded of the enduring beauty found within historical fashion archives like Heritage Images.
