Description

Step into the elegance of the Victorian era and explore the transformative fashions that defined spring and summer style beneath the bustle. This program examines the lighter fabrics, softer color palettes, and seasonal design choices that shaped warm weather dress during the Victorian period. Through discussion and visual examples, we’ll uncover how structure, undergarments, and silhouette worked together to create the iconic bustle era look, while adapting to the heat and social expectations of the season. 

This lecture is part of the Summer Lecture Series at The Square PHX.
