Here is an aged illustration of a Victorian lady holding an unopened parasol as she models a luxurious Ladies’ Costume. The dress is floor length with long sleeves and a high neckline. It includes several beautiful details including velvet ribbon, braided trim and knotted fringe. The image is from the October 1889 issue of The Delineator magazine.
Plus a black and white clip art version.

Wouldn’t it be fun to have these old dresses and have a dress up day with photos? I’ve always loved these Victorian gowns but thankfully they aren’t in style anymore! 🙂
Awesome work you’re doing here! I was just browsing and thought I’d say hi, now back to work on this end. Have an awesome day!

Ooh, this is one of the prettier fashions from the era that I’ve seen! Thank you, Julie.: ) xoxo
Thank you Darlene. Dress up would be fun but I’m also thankful that this isn’t the style anymore! 🙂
Pat, I agree that this is a very pretty fashion. You’re welcome. xoxo
