Treat #1 : The Aesthete

This treat is a 1880's Set inspired by the Aesthetic movement aka victorians cosplaying previous eras (mostly the Middle Ages) and simping for Oscar Wilde. More pics and download below

It includes the following CC items :

Thought these oufits are specifically suited for the 1880s, the Aesthetic or Artistic dress movement is somewhat of a victorian fashion subculture dating back to the 1860's.

The people participating in this fashion were part of the artistic sphere, so definitely not your typical victorian person and this style wasn't always well-regarded by the rest of society. The Aesthetic dress movement never went mainstream and most of the dresses in that style were house dresses and tea gowns, giving them more casual and private uses. But this fashion nonetheless impacted trends of the following decades (trains, puffy sleeves, flowy silhouettes... ring's a bell ?).

This movement was strongly influenced by Pre-Raphaelite paintings (hence the medieval inspired elements) and linked to the Arts and Craft movement. For the women the dresses were usually plainer than what was typical of the time (not hard given how mainstream 1880s fashion went really trim crazy), potentially homemade, with less structured silhouettes (possibly worn without corsets).

bitch this is all you’re gonna get. this life, this face, this body. you better not ‘maybe in another universe’ your way out of everything. sit your ass down and face this. go make tea and have a picnic and read a goddamn book. kiss your loved ones, send that damn text, and hug your siblings. this is all you’re gonna get.
