Visiting dress

Silk taffeta, lace | Circa 1880

In the 1870-1880s bustles came into fashion. Those were pillows, wire or wicker frames, worn under the skirt at the back below the waist, and used to expand fullness and shape silhouette. For this purpose, frills, draperies, and pleats were also used.

The dresses were decorated with embroidery and lace. Made of taffeta, they were adorned with bows and silk ribbons. Under the dress, corset with lacing was worn. This is an exquisite and perfectly preserved visiting dress, which symbolizes the wealth and prosperity of its era.
