EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a piece of history in the form of a beautiful woman's dress from Scotland, specifically Lanarkshire, East Kilbride. Dating back to around 1866-1867, this dress is made of luxurious silk and cotton, meticulously hand-stitched and machine-stitched to perfection.
The bright blue corded silk with silk satin detailing gives this dress an elegant and regal look. The round neckline can be transformed into a square-cut decolletage by folding back the centre front panels, adorned with a delicate frill trim. The full-length sleeves feature wide bell-shaped cuffs for added flair.
The skirt is constructed with gored panels and cartridge pleats at the back, creating a voluminous silhouette that flows gracefully over a cage-crinoline. A slight train adds drama to this already exquisite garment.
Worn by a member of the Reid family at Wester Kittochside Farm in East Kilbride, this dress exudes sophistication and timeless style. It is accompanied by a matching peplum belt and coordinating petticoat for a complete ensemble that would have been the height of fashion during its time.
This print allows us to appreciate the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating such an exquisite piece of clothing over 150 years ago.
