Mantuas (1 janv. 1700 – 1 janv. 1720)
Description:
Mantuas started emerging in the late 17th century as a more comfortable alternative to boned bodices that were worn with separate skirts.
The mantua featured elbow-length cuffed sleeves, and the overskirt was typically drawn back over the hips to show the petticoat beneath. In the earliest mantuas, the long trained skirt was allowed to trail. In about 1710, it became customary to pin up the train.
