Robes Modèles Historiques, 18th Century Costume

48th plate of album with 60 19th-century costume plates and 1 drawing of mostly women's historical costumes, featuring a variety of designs for traditional costumes from different parts of the world, as well as costumes for literary characters, including Esmeralda. This plate consists of a woman wearing a historical 18th-century costume, made up of a yellow dress with pale blue linings, white lace with golden details in the chest, and a diagonal white band with tiny brown dots, and borders of golden lines that interlace around red round stones, and a large volume of light blue fabric with groups of three thin golden stripes, which matches a scarf that hangs on her arm. A red rose with small, green leaves decorates the band, and another decorates the opposite shoulder. A garland of red roses and green leaves hangs diagonally from her waist and across the front of the skirt. She wears cream gloves and bangles on her arms, light blue stockings, and brown low-heels with straps that scroll up her legs. She wears a large, yellow hat on her head with large, pale pink and pale blue feathers. She holds a long, thin cane decorated with a yellow ribbon bow on one hand.
