It's the tail-end of pumpkin season, so I'm going to go hard or go home with orange for the next couple of days. Yes, I suppose you could say these are pumpkins spice dresses.

This French Depret satin confection comes from the cusp of the 1860s into the 1870s, and I love a transition period dress. There's nothing as cool to me as being able to see fashions change before your eyes, gown to gown.

In this case, we still have the monumental skirts, but you start to see some of the trimmings that show up in the 1870s--tassels, fringe, that sort of thing. Plus, the top is a faux jacket, modeled after sporty riding and military coats commonly seen among more masculine designs.

The back of this dress though, is all bustle--but still with the volume of the 1860s, before things go up and back.

I love the play with different silk weaves, here, to give contrast to the design. You get that super shiny satin against a plain weave silk. Ooh la la!

From the Met.

Let's talk about color combinations. This, here, is one of the most lovely jewel tone combinations. Right smack in the middle of the 1880s, this dress is a delight of copper damask against deep, Navy blue satin. So much silk, and such shimmering contrast.

As is so common in this period, we see the (somewhat toned down) bustle, buttons to high heavens, and tailoring that is reminiscent of menswear (probably my favorite element of this outfit).

Also, the back of this dress! Those pleats give me the vapors. From LACMA.

sharkselfies asked:

hi!! where is your header image of that blue dress from? i’d love to see the full dress if you have the pic, it looks gorgeous!

I had to do a reverse image search lol

House of Worth, Silk English Dress 1886

Found a blog entry on the dress! It looks like the colors on the image I use have been enhanced; they're not as bright on the dress itself. But there are a bunch of images of it at the link!
