Femme turque en toilette de ville. Artist: Félix Bonfils (French, 1831-1885). Dimensions: Image: 22.2 x 16.4 cm (8 3/4 x 6 7/16 in.). Date: 1870s.This arresting image of a veiled Turkish woman is one of a large series of costume studies produced by the prolific Maison Bonfils photography studio. Based in cosmopolitan Beirut, the studio was founded by the bookbinder-turned-photographer Félix Bonfils in 1867 and produced high-quality architectural views, landscapes, and genre studies of the Near East for more than seventy years. Initially a family business, the firm eventually employed a number of photographers, including Bonfils's son Adrien and his wife, Marie-Lydie Cabanis. Marie-Lydie likely produced the costume studies of female subjects, since Muslim women would not have been permitted to pose for male photographers. Appealing to the curiosity and fantasies of tourists, these photographs also lent a perceived authenticity to paintings by artists such as Mariano Fortuny and Sir Law

Portrait of a lady in a summer dress by Albin Mutterer using the daguerreotype process between 1840 and 1849, showing clothing and facial features.

Robe à la Française ca. 1760 British A formal dress was not considered finished until it had been trimmed with robings along the opening of the bodice, down the skirt front, and along the edges of the pagoda sleeves. Robings of gauze, ribbons, fringe, or silk flowers were supplied by a milliner and could be very expensive, as they were complicated and time-consuming to make by hand. Further, ladies would update their gowns from season to season by changing the robings. This particular dress substitutes for fancy robings self-fabric ruching with a punchwork pattern and pinked edge, made with an awl and a sharp rolling wheel much like a pastry cutter. The National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, has a similarly trimmed dress in bright canary-yellow corded silk, and examples can be found in British and American Colonial portraits..
