What was Aesthetic dress?
Answer / guest
Aesthetic dress was a protest against the contemporary
fashion for bustles in various forms and restrictive
corsets. Only a very small section of the community ever
wore it initially, but it did spread to middle class
intellectuals, to artistic and literary people. Aesthetic
dress was made of wool or Liberty silk or velvet fabrics.
It was cut looser and was unstructured in the style of
medieval or Renaissance garments with larger sleeves. The
dress appeared loose compared with figure hugging fashion
garments of the era. The typical aesthetic lady would have
red flowing hair often henna enhanced, a pale face, green
eyes and wore heelless shoes.
