EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the elegant world of the late 19th century with this illustration of the Adele blouse or bodice, a true testament to the ornate and intricately designed fashions of the Victorian era. Dated 1895, this illustration is taken from 'Our Ladies Pages: Fashions up to Date,' a publication that showcased the latest trends for women. The Adele blouse, with its high collar, elaborate ribboned puff sleeves, and corseted waist, is a stunning example of the opulence and refinement of the time. The high collar, which reached up to the jawline, was a defining feature of the era, adding an air of sophistication and formality to any outfit. The elaborate ribboned puff sleeves, or leg o' mutton sleeves, were voluminous and ornate, adorned with intricate ribbon detailing that added texture and visual interest. The corseted waist, a staple of Victorian fashion, accentuated the hourglass figure and cinched the waistline, creating an hourglass silhouette. This illustration offers a glimpse into the world of high fashion during the Victorian era, a time when women's clothing was characterized by its intricate detailing, rich fabrics, and ornate embellishments. The Adele blouse, with its timeless design and elegant style, remains a beloved icon of the 1890s and the 19th century as a whole. Whether worn for a formal occasion or as part of everyday attire, this blouse is a reminder of the beauty and elegance of a bygone era.
