How Much is a Black Victorian Dress?
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Victorian dresses consist of two parts, the bodice and the skirt. What makes Victorian dresses special and distinctive is the ample back of the skirt which is supported by a bustle. The bustle is not a part of the dress; it is an undergarment that’s similar to a half slip with enough support to lift the heavy fabrics of a Victorian skirt. Shop a collection of vintage clothing from some of the world’s top boutiques on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 23, 2024The parts of a Victorian dress are called the bodice and the skirt. Bodice refers to the area of the dress above the waist, while the skirt is the portion that flows from the waist to the floor. Underneath their dresses, Victorians often wore corsets to cinch their waistlines, hoop crinolines to enhance the shape of the skirt and bustles to lift the back of the dress in the buttocks area. However, these undergarments were separate pieces that had to be put on prior to a dress. On 1stDibs, explore a large collection of historic, vintage and contemporary dresses.

- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023What makes the Chanel little black dress so special has everything to do with what the garment symbolized and the era in which it materialized. Legendary fashion designer Coco Chanel revolutionized women’s wear, introducing a more casual, less constricting look for the early 20th century, and debuting uncomplicated skirts and jackets made of a cloth-like fabric called jersey that was considerably unconventional in the world of couture fashion. She set the fashion world alight in 1926 with an elegant but versatile black dress, which was simple and spare compared to other Jazz Age garments (and quite bold, as black was reserved for mourning). Importantly, the dress was affordable during a time of great financial difficulty and aimed at the broadest possible market. Find vintage Chanel dresses on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023Coco Chanel first made the little black dress popular in 1926. That year, Vogue magazine referred to the dress as Chanel’s Model T as a way to describe how the approachable design was something the average woman could wear, just as Ford’s Model T automobile made it possible for more everyday people to own a car. On 1stDibs, find a selection of Chanel dresses.
