EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases layout illustrations for an article on women's underwear from the late 19th century. The artwork, originally featured in La Vie Parisienne, offers a glimpse into the fashion and style of that era. The coloured engraving depicts various undergarments such as corsets, stockings, and lingerie meticulously drawn by a French artist. Each detail is beautifully captured, highlighting the intricate designs and craftsmanship of these essential pieces of clothing. A female mannequin serves as a model to showcase how these undergarments would look when worn. The dummy flawlessly displays the waist-cinching effect of corsetry while emphasizing the feminine figure. These illustrations were likely used as proofs or references for articles discussing women's fashion during this period. They provide valuable insights into the trends and preferences surrounding undergarments at that time. Displayed at Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet in France, this image has been preserved through eArchives Charmet and is now available for public viewing thanks to Bridgeman Images. This print not only captures historical significance but also celebrates the artistry behind creating functional yet elegant garments for women throughout history. It serves as a reminder of how fashion has evolved over time while still drawing inspiration from its rich past.
