EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning fashion plate, titled "Promenade Dress," dates back to 1825 and was created by renowned British artist Rudolph Ackermann. The image captures the essence of women's fashion during the Regency era in Britain, showcasing an elegant promenade dress in all its glory. The full-length engraving on paper is hand-colored, adding vibrancy and depth to the intricate details of the dress. The dress, which follows the empire line, features a fitted bodice that cinches at the waist, creating an hourglass silhouette. The long-sleeved gown is adorned with red stripes and white floral patterns, making it a standout piece in any woman's wardrobe. A matching pelisse, or robe, is worn over the dress, adding an extra layer of warmth and sophistication. The woman in the fashion plate wears a hat with a large brim and a hand warmer, both essential accessories for a leisurely stroll in the park or a promenade along the streets of London. The dress, with its full skirt and flowing lines, is the perfect attire for such occasions, allowing women to move gracefully and elegantly. This fashion plate is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the 19th century, providing a glimpse into the world of women's fashion during the Regency era. Today, it is preserved in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences with its timeless beauty and historical significance.
