Afternoon dress. Culture: American. Date: 1876-78.The popularity of black in the second half of the nineteenth century was stimulated by the introduction of chemical dyes of that color in the 1860s. While tasteful and timeless, black remained associated with death and the garb of the widow--a woman often imagined as dangerously independent and alluring. Appropriate for third-stage mourning, this black silk faille dress blurs the distinction between mourning and fashion, and its original use remains unknown. Cut with princess seams, the dress forms the tight, smooth fit over the hips that epitomized late 1870s fashions. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

Headdress. Culture: Russian. Date: 1795-1805.This object is from the collection of Natalia de Shabelsky (1841-1905), a Russian noblewoman compelled to preserve what she perceived as the vanishing folk art traditions of her native country. Traveling extensively throughout Great Russia, she collected many fine examples of textile art of the wealthy peasant class. From the 1870s until moving to France in 1902, Shabelsky amassed a large collection of intricately embroidered hand-woven household textiles and opulent festival garments with rich decoration and elaborate motifs. The Brooklyn Museum holdings include many fine examples including the majority of the garments. Portions of Shabelsky's collection are also housed at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the Cleveland Art Museum, and the Russian Museum of Ethnography in St. Petersburg.Diadems with open tops such as these were only worn my unmarried women in order to showcase their hair, considered a prize possession.

Dress. Culture: French. Date: ca. 1882.The late nineteenth century in fashion is governed by both the somewhat typical constructions of lace and silk eveningwear, and the fairly new and "modern" representations of women's sport and travel clothing. While most intriguing are the avant-garde developments of the Bloomer pants and the many adaptations of the women's riding habit, which incorporated menswear affectations into both its ornamentation and its construction, the women's walking costume is one of the most difficult ensembles to find currently in pristine condition. Partially because few women felt compelled to include such a pedestrian costume in their trousseaus, and partially due to the natural deteriorations caused by light, moisture and old age, the well-kempt walking costume of the 1880s and 1890s can be found in few modern costume collections. The construction of the ensemble's bustle is squarely in congruence with the trendy shape of the second bustle period, and the Cura
