Relevance: Isabella
Blow's style
retrospective at
Somerset House
and the Georgians
Revealed exhibit at
the British Library
confirm a renewed
interest in a past
British era.
Aristocratic attire
and Dickensian
street urchins both
made a mark on
fashion
Styling: this trend
juxtaposes 18th
and 19th century
regal outfits and
extravagant
accessorising with
street-urchin
dandy silhouettes.
Styled together, the
result makes for
theatrical looks
with references to
circus performers
Fabric: plush,
opulent fabrics
such as velvet,
brocade and fur
co-exist with
menswear-inspired
stripe suitings and
wool herringbones

Blow, Vivienne
