Sylvia's Victorian Trained Evening Dress


Most fine evening dress as appeared on Godey's Lady's Book, 1875


This model is undeniably astonishing!, Sylvia' s beauty is enhanced by this evening dress made of acqua green silk, satin and chiffon. This complex outfit consists of basqued bodice, trained skirt with various over-skirts, 3/4 gloves and flounced cape.
Do you think that's all? Her three-layered petticoat, low corset, and other undergarments are responsible for that stylish silhouette.
