Moniteur De La Mode, Parisian Victorian Ladies Fashion (Plate 11-1886) Illustrated by Jules David
A vibrantly detailed, hand-colored chromolithograph engraved on chain linked paper from the Parisian subscription publication Le Moniteur de la Mode. Le Moniteur was a conglomeration of three women's fashion publications (La Gazette Rose Illustre, Le Bon Ton, and L'Elegance Parisienne Reunis), that was popular during the 1880's and 1890's.
Purchased from Crowley Milner & Co. (a.k.a. Crowley's of modern day)
These images display women's Victorian fashions of the 1880s, as characterized by the high-collared dresses and chemisettes, fanciful top hats or highly-decorated hair accessories, and the addition of bustle at the skirt's rear. Unlike earlier fashion plates, these illustrations display the clothing in real world environments, as worn by women in specific circumstances and performing daily activities.
