It's Fichu Friday!

This lovely ca.1800-25 fichu is from the V&A collection.

A fichu is a triangle-shaped piece of fabric which was worn around the decolletage.

Object description from the V&A website:

"Triangular fichu of delicate, but fairly large, drochel net. Around the edges, a delicate pattern of thin stemmed flowers entirely worked in cloth stitch with raised, woven edges. Attached to the fichu is an edging of poor quality Honiton bobbin lace."

Robe à l'Anglaise - c.1770-1780

Unlike the robe à la française (French Gown), which has pleats falling from the shoulders, the robe à l'anglaise (English dress) has a full fitted waist. A low square neckline with a fichu scarf for both elegance and modesty sake which matched the engageantes (false sleeves).

The dress is made of silk woven taffeta adorned with floral embroidery which was common all throughout the late baroque period (Rococo). The more simplistic design suggests the beginning of the neoclassical movement (circa.1760-1850).

Obsessed with how over it Madeleine is in this moment.

Like, Oh, mon dieu, ces fichus hommes et leurs fichus drames, et ça va finir par la mort de c’elle que j’aime plus que tout qu’il reste dans ce putain monde.

Another photo from a reenactment event in Spain in May ☺️ We went to the El Parque de Capricho and walked around for a few hours in the garden! And I’m finally wearing a hat that my friend kindly let me borrow. I really like how this one came out.
