Victorian Fashion Then and Now

 

It is clear to see that the image on the left is a modern take on the traditional Victorian wear seen on the right, the artist of these ensembles is Dandies and Quaintrelles, artists that create their own spin on tradition clothing and scene

As to the norm we see Victorian fashion with the netted behind this artist removed it completely making a more sensual design, as to the button up shirts the designer minimized it and made the cleavage/ decolletage area open, the designer mimicked the ruffles found on the collar with a neck piece of fabric , the ruffles in the skirts themselves have been translated into layers on the bottom of the new design shirt.
