La Mode Illustrée (1880)


It's December and the festive season has begun—which means parties, parties and more parties!  In the spirit of the season I'm going to spend the month posting pictures of evening and party dress.  To kick things off, here is an engraving from La Mode Illustrée of November the 21st 1880.   It depicts three young ladies dressed for a ball, though I must confess their outfits look uncomfortably tight for dancing to me!
