EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph, titled "Costumes Historiques de la France" and published by Le Bibliophile Jacob in Paris in 1852, offers a captivating glimpse into the world of French women's fashion during the mid-18th century. The intricately detailed image showcases a collection of elegant and fashionable outfits worn by French women in 1750. The figures in the print are dressed in the latest styles of the time, which were characterized by their opulence and grandeur. The women are adorned in voluminous skirts, corsets, and panniers that accentuated their slender waists and full hips. Their bodices were adorned with intricate lacework, ribbons, and bows, adding an air of sophistication and elegance. The fashionable headpieces of the time are also on full display, with some women wearing elaborate wigs and others opting for more modest headdresses. The use of vibrant colors and intricate patterns adds to the overall visual appeal of the print. It is important to note that this lithograph is not a contemporary representation of the fashion of 1750 but rather a later interpretation, as it was created over a century after the time period it depicts. However, it provides an invaluable insight into the fashion trends and styles of the time and serves as a testament to the enduring allure of 18th-century French fashion. This beautiful and intricately detailed print is a must-have for anyone with an interest in fashion history, costume design, or the history of France. It offers a unique and captivating glimpse into the world of French women's fashion during a time when opulence and elegance reigned supreme.
