SACK-BACK GOWN WITH PETTICOAT
CIRCA 1750-1760
Embroidered Silk Damask Silk Thread
Tumblr media
Women's fashions of the second half of the 18th century displayed a wide silhouette as panniers (side hoops) held the skirt out at the hips while stays (corset) created a narrow waistline. The dress was usually called a robe; while the skirt was called a petticoat. A robe à la Française, or sack-back gown, combined a taut bodice with folds of fabric that extended from the back neckline down to the hem of the gown. This gown may have arrived in the American colonies as a ready-made fashion or perhaps lengths of the silk brocade had been imported from Spitalsfield, England. Spitalsfield was the manufacturing site for numerous floral silks, silk brocades and damasks.

Waiting for the photos. As we were walking past this photo booth in Old Spitalfields Market the other day, I couldn't help but try to capture this. I loved this young girl's enthusiasm as she waited for the photos to print. Priceless. #photooftheday #photobooth #family #peoplewatching #spitalsfields #london #oldspitalfieldsmarket #mytinyatlaslondon #londonstreets #londonsbest #londonbylondoners #mysecretlondon #tourist #irishinlondon #irishabroad #IrishinBritain #londonirish #retro #photomatic #hotshots (at Old Spitalfields Market) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXwrZGCspPu/?utm_medium=tumblr

No mercado de Spitalsfields em Londres você pode fazer compras ou curtir um bom almoço. No Androuet eu comi um delicioso fondue com batatas e vinho, preparado por um autenticidades chef francês. Uma opção bem gostosa pra quem quer fugir do clássico Fish & Chips!
💕✨ ANDROUET✨ 💕

On Spitalsfields market in London you can shop and have a nice meal. At Androuet I tired a delicious fondue worh potatos and white wine, prepared by a true french chef. A delicious option for those who want something other than the london classic Fish & chips.

There's nothing like being out and about in a really cold day and being able to grab a hot drink, coffee or my favourite this time of year, hot spiced apple juice. Yummy! I can smell it just thinking about it. 161/365 #nessymon365 #Project365 #london #mytinyatlaslondon #exploringlondon #londonbylondoners #ig_london #londondisclosure #londoncollective #metropolis_london #itssolondon #londonist #london_city_photo #mysecretlondon #londonguru #londonforyou #londonstreets #thelondonlifeinc #londonsbest #london_enthusiast #thelondonear #winter #hotdrink #spitalsfields #oldspitalfieldsmarket #shoreditch (at Old Spitalfields Market) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5IGU4cn_79/?igshid=1ekkjg6dtoqzq

This is exactly why I love London. It's so diverse that you never know what you will see on your daily walks through the city. As I made my way home after my productive day, I came across a crowd and beautiful Latin/Samba music playing akin Spitalsfield Market at Liverpool Street and being the curious blogger that I am, I wandered over to the tent and lo: people (total strangers) were pairing up to dance to the amazing rhythm being played. Just pure unadulterated freedom and love of music and dance. This is why I love My London cause music and dance clears away all stress and joins us all as One Body. My City! My London!
