Vestido de boda

1864
Not on view
Durante gran parte del siglo XIX, la silueta femenina a la moda incluía un corpiño en forma de triángulo invertido que alargaba visualmente el cuello. Este ideal de belleza se refleja en los corpiños de los vestidos de gala de los años 1860, típicamente caracterizados por un escote en barco con los hombros al descubierto, lo que requiere eliminar o bajar los tirantes de los corsés. La falda amplia y acampanada de este periodo fue posible gracias a la invención, una década antes, del aro de crinolina. A partir de 1865, los aros cada vez más grandes soportarán faldas de gran amplitud.
