Victorian Clothing

  VICTORIAN---a name given to an era (1860 -1901) when Queen Victoria reigned. She was mourning her husband for many years, thus the styles in furniture, and clothing and social morals were very conservative, at least in public.  

1890 Victorian Reproduction
Since 100 year old garments are more show pieces than wearable garments due to condition or small sizes, the use of a reproduction or redesigned outfits are more practical. In redesigning we are able to use fabrics that are more durable and easier to clean, sizes are designed for the modern body structure.

1900-EDWARDIAN/GIBSON ERA 

1910-1919-TITANIC ERA 

  EDWARDIAN /GIBSON ERA--- (1900-1909)    King Edward VII reigned in England from 1901-1910.  Edwardian is the name of that era although his influence took a back seat to the “GIBSON LOOK”.  Charles Gibson, a writer and illustrator of stories defining his “ideal Gibson girl look”; youthful girl, tall, slender, busty with S-curve torso and hair piled on top of her head.   

TITANIC ERA--- (1910-1919) Era remembered due to the devastating sinking of the renouned ship the Titanic.  Styles emerging with a more feminine silhouette, less corseting, simpler undergarments, shorter skirts, and more emphasis on sport attire. This era introduced the “20’s”.
