The clothing style in the victorian period could be classified into the vintage clothing style. There exists a way for the people in the modern world to dress in the vintage style and also be modern: to modernize the vintage clothes to suit your fashion needs and personal style. During the victorian period, the women’s dresses were fitted on the waist and bust, and flowed throughout the length of the skirt. Victorian dresses were heavy and uncomfortable due to many layers and the material of choice. Victorian dresses are characterized by their feminine appearance with ruffles, lace and ribbons.
The first step is to choose a ball gown. This silhouette is most classic in the victorian style. Brighter colors are perfect to match the victorian style. You can also choose a petticoat in a contrasting color under your Victorian dress. White will look dramatic, but brighter colors such as red and pink can be used by those who are brave enough.
The second step is to accessorize your outfit with jewelry. Gold jewelry will work best for a Victorian look. Wear a large locket around your neck or pearl beads. Loose and long curls or a small bun at the nape of the neck will complete your look. Any shoes will work, since a Victorian dress is long. However, the shoes should be elegant.
Some people may love the vintage clothes but will not wear it. Here I just focus on how to dress both in the vintage and modern style.
