Victorian Wedding Gowns and Autumn Styles from October 1885
An authentic 1885 hand-colored engraving from Peterson’s Magazine, titled “The Bride and Her Friends,” presents a detailed look at Gilded Age high-society fashion. The engraving showcases a bride in a lavish white lace wedding dress with an extensive veil alongside four friends dressed in richly colored autumn evening attire.
The Silhouette of the Late 19th Century and Large Bustles
This historical illustration highlights the distinct shelf bustle silhouette dominant during the mid-1880s, featuring tightly tailored bodices and heavily draped overskirts. The contrasting color palette of deep purple, textured grey, patterned blue, and bridal white provides essential historical insights into Victorian textile artistry and formal etiquette.
