Dress 1892 - 1893

This black silk dress, created by the renowned House of Worth in 1892-1893, embodies the elegance and sophistication of late 19th-century fashion. The dress features a fitted bodice with a high neckline, accentuated by the dramatic puffed sleeves that were a hallmark of the era. The skirt is full and flowing, with a delicate pattern woven into the fabric. The delicate lace undergarment visible beneath the jacket adds a touch of femininity, making this outfit an excellent example of the "New Woman" fashion trend. This dress is currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
