CRI01X OF FASHION.
Ior with political Kvfut The In
flueiiee or trance on iho Fhltuallei
World.
Translated from the Illustrated Journil of Lripsir,
Tiu-ie find fashion aro like nil other human
and earthly tti nsr, they do not uro up of
thcnHdvi'o, isolated troin anrroundine circum
stances, bin havp their himoriral connucti m
with them, and iher existence is baed upon
intrinsic rcflnoiiR. Let us take an example trora
a pnniculnrly cDiiractenxtic ant important
product ot the reiBuintr mode, as lar na drcn is
concerned. When the Empress Eucenie, some
ten jears aero, at a ball In the Tuileries, tor the
first time wore that Interesting piece of parment
which, under the name ot crinoline, subse
quently conquered the civilued world, with a
mysterioim hir.t. It was snid that this invention
toad been Imagined by that clever lady in ordr
to conceal m much as possible a transitory de
fortuity ot the female tex. It maybe admitted
that tho lair Empress stood in need of suei an
ingenious mechanism, and that it whs also this
Intention which prompted her to adopt it: as to
the other ladies M ho first resolved to follow her
example, there was, perhaps, without their
tieing con:cious of it, some other motive which
lay deeper and had not that merely personal
origin.
The inquiry into the taut reasons of a reigning
Tnode is the more interest ina nnd important the
closer the connection ot taste and fashion in
dress and exterior appearance with the develop
ment of the events and facts ot universal history.
If we consider only crinoline, we immediately
find out an important point njt to be over
looked that it is not at all a new species of
lemaie dress, an upstart whose pdis:ree begins
with the present day; it U, on the coniraty, a
jounjr scion ol an old and noble family, which
has liouriahcd throuph several generations, and
founts at least two ancestors of which it may bo
proud the Spaiiibk hoop pcaicoat of the seven
teenth and the French ot tte eighteenth century.
Now there exists a generally a linitte 1 dofina that
whenever the temale petticoat begins to swell,
and, what 1s always simultaneous, whenever the
temale bead-dreBs begins to rise, importaut ca
tastrophes in history may with certaiuty be
counted upon. Thus, alter the Spanish lioop
petticoat came the Thirty Years' War; after the
i'rench, the devolution. Also our crinolim U a
prophet of the future, but what does it predict?
As it ia universally acknowledged, France is
still the country ot ruling modes and lasDions.
Thete the restored Bourbon alter some feeble
and fruitless ai tempts to reintroduce the inodo
of the oncien regime, were obliped to legitimate
the mode of the Empire, and on this imperial
costume ihe development and form of our ac
tual dres is still dependent.
The question arose, whac position the Empire
would occupy in the world of fashion. The
answer could not be doubtful. True, Napoleon
ic had restored the mona'chieal pover in
France, but nevertheless it considered itself the
keystone of the Republic whose oolitical insti
tutions and deniocratical terms it purposely
allowed to be continued. Just in the same
manner Cte.ar Augustus had gradually trans
formed the Roman Republic into Imperial
Rome. Nothing but the head was changed.
Therefore, also, the French Empire could not
willingly oppose republican taste, and especially
republican modes : on toe contrary, it cou
sidi red itself as their improver. Thus the some
what antique republican dres was preserved
under the Empire: but degenerating more and
more, it finally lost all character and physiog
nomy.
Let us first examine the female dress, The
revolution had the pretension not oily to be
antique republican, but also to appear in its
costumes; and, theieiore, when unaer the Direc
tory the Reign of Terror hud subsided and love
ot life began to revive, at the balls of the Direc
tors the tirst nnd most celebrated ladies those
who ruled the fashions appeared in the ancient
(jlriek shirt-lik tunica ana himittlon. thrown
over the shoulders like a cloak, with head
dresses and sandals of the Romau Empire. But,
t the beginning of the Reformation, at the time
ol the Conaress ot Vienna, this Greek tunica.
although still forming the principal part of
female dress, had already lost what toriued its
characteristic beaurv the free flow ot its folds.
Jt had again beco ue a garment which, without
ant loldn. tiehtlv inclosed the whole body diwn
to the leet, which could therefore take but short
etens. This narrow baa had recovered a waist.
but as high up as possible, and below, asamst
sill our notions ot noble dignity, tiio ieei ap
peared again. The development which took its
starting point Ironi this ungainly, ridiculous,
and uncomfortable drcs, could not do other
wise than to impart to the robe greater ampll
tude and lenutli.
Whoever will follow the Journal des Modes
from year to year, oan exactly and distinctly
obsprve this march ot development. The robe
' gradually swells, lays itselt in folds, and falls
down to the leet and over them, terminating
in a train. At the close of 1850 it would hav
been possible to stop this movement, which
had arrived at its extreme limits; but the same
thing occurred as in the case ol Goethe's ap
prentice in sorcery, who had forgotten his for
mula and was unable to get rid of the ghosts
lie had evoked. The swelling went on and on
to such an excels, that now the crinoline arose
as the indL-peneable savior against the burden
nt earuienis. and as a means of support. This
is its real and veritable genesis. In connection
with this development is the descending
and narrowing of the waist, the retn
introduction oi the corset and stays; but also
that newest and, under all circumstances, very
luxurious tabhion of many colored ani costly
trimmed ppfticoats, which by-anu-by gained the
appearance und value of a second upper gar
ment. Before the crinoline becan to sway, both
in summer and winter, white under-garmcnts
were generally worn, ani during dusty and
rainy weather the robe, together with the under
garments, were tucked up a custom at which
notody took otiense. But the crinoline tucked
up in this manner would oner a very ungainly
aud uncomely shape; therefore it was allowed
to banc down as it is; and fur reasons, mostly
ot convenience and economy, the so-called Vic
toria or Balmoral petticoats, instead of white
ones, are generally worn, and In bad weather
only the robe is tucked up.
Our pantaloons which are now In general use,
like the female garments modified trom the
tunica, date also Ironi that agitated and memo
rable revolutionary period which began at the
end of iho last century. Formerly it was the
general custom lor trowsers to descend into top
boots, and when, tharetore, during the revolu
tionary tims, halt boots or bootees became
fashionable, the trowsers had to be lengthened so
as to reach down to them. Thus they hud already
arrived at the middle between the knee and
ankle; they wanted nothing but one pull more
to descend to the ieet. And this pull took place
in 1704, under Robespierre the pantaloons were
born. It is a strange irony that their originators
worn the verv same who, only a short time
wtnro. had denftinced all kinds of breeches as
useless, and for that reason had bcea nicknamed
"sans cuioties."
In the pplendidl y Illustrated work of Kretsch-
mar Kohrbacn, me customs oi an envious,
h fiirmifH coincidence was for tho first time
remarked that these enthusisstlc admirers of
Tiokprl leo had become the inventor ol the long
pantaloons, which were unknown both to the
middle ages and to antiquity, aud reaalled
h nation;; of Asia Minor and the Scyths. At
4rmt thn new fashion was adopted by the "In
croyaoles," but a little laterit found imitators also
in :emianv. The most exaggerated among tha
heros of lashion wore them very large( the
more moderate rather tight. The stud was
usually Nanking. When, In 1797, the incredible
tet neurrpi that King Frederick William the
Third, of Prussia, one day walked about in long
panls in the watering place of Pyrin ont. the
fashionable, and noble world lost altogether the
little wit that bad been lett to them, and began
also to move about with their legs in long pan
taloons. The spell was broken; the stockings
.,iiui.i,nprp(l. m,ri uiprei not teen again.
The n ode ot the dress-coat dates from the
year 1770: the Jacket then disappeared aud was
votdiweri by the waistcoat, a half jacket. The
dress coat, the gala dress of the first French
omnira and the unilorm of bis soldiers, was
preserved up to our times as the male dress tor
fp.-tive occasions, mch as balls, visits of condo
lence, nuptials, aud Implisuis. At court lesti
vsls It is Impossible to appear without it, except
those who wear uniforms. It received a liUle
Miock from the Prussian military tunic which
nas adopted in the tear lstfi, and soon found
its way into other aimics aUc; this is poibaps
the legiiining of the end of the dress-coat.
The final defeat both of the nove-pipe hat and
of the dress-rout in their struude against the
i-mall felt hat aud the frock coat cannot be
doubtful.
Tee stiff black cylinder hat had its nriem in
America, and was but a modification ol tne
I'uritan or Quaker ha, which, la consequence
ol the sympathy which then reigned in Europe
with the war of independence ol the American
colonies, came rapidly Into lashion with all
liberal parties. The French Jacobins also
adopted it, and, as a political mark ot distinc
tion of republicanism, it was In many places
persecuted by the police by all the means at Its
disposition. "It is evident," thus it was said,
"that the round hat protects and assists him
who wants to escape lrom the eye of others;
a man ot refinement will therefore take care not
to make himself suspicious by wearing It. This
hat is nothing but a means for reprobate and
vicious people to hide themselves."
Strange to say, this is the very same black
hat which we wear today, and which during
the last ten or twenty vcars pnrsccuted, as
legitimate ruler, its adversary, tne low, small,
prey or brown felt hat, as a Carbonaro or a
Democrat. Sixty years aro there was then the
same relation between the three-cornered hat
nnd the cy liudrlc hat, to such a point that an
Enelit-hman who wanted to inquire as to the
political sentiments of Germany, travelled lor
the rurpo.-e of looking at the form ot the hats,
and finally planned a map, In which the state
ot revolutionary or monarchical opinions was
marked according to the form ot the hats worn.
At present the rmall low lelt hat has already
tor several years passed its status of martyrdom;
its political si&niticuucc is lost, and it is now
fighting under various forms its last victorious
buttle against the cylindrlc hat.
The lemaie hcad-diess followed the opposite
road to that of the lemalp dress. The restoration
of the Bourbons had reintroduced some of t ue
formidable forms ot the times just preceding the
French Revolution. These hats endeavored for
awhile to swim agaiust the current, but from
vear to year the colossal brim was gradually
lessened, and at last it disappeared entirely;
what was lett of the hat recoiled more and more
from the forehead, until it became a mere
protector of the neck. As things then stood, a
reaction was necessary, and the old hat not
being disposed to rejuvenate itself by adopting
a new form, there suddenly arose in the "last
attempt" an adversary which, with its different
variations, wages agaiust the former a war to
the deal h.
