EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning carriage cloak/dust cloak from Stewart & McDonald, Scotland, Glasgow circa 1885-1889 is a true masterpiece of Victorian fashion. Made of luxurious silk and adorned with brass safety pins, this garment exudes elegance and sophistication.
The intricate details of the standing collar, full cape with shoulder seams, and shoulder 'kick-up' showcase the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating this piece. The rich history behind this cloak transports us back to a time when travel was a grand affair, and dressing the part was essential.
As we admire this exquisite garment, we can't help but imagine the elegant lady who once wore it while traveling in her horse-drawn carriage through the streets of Glasgow. The flowing silhouette and delicate fabric would have made her stand out in a crowd, turning heads wherever she went.
This print captures not just a piece of clothing but a moment in time when fashion was artistry and every detail mattered. It serves as a reminder of the beauty and creativity that can be found in historical garments like this one from Stewart & McDonald.
