Did Rococo women carry around parasols?
I’m making the illustrations for my grandmother’s book and she asked me for a pompous lady, dressed like Marie-Antoinette, carrying a lace parasol. It seems kind of strange, and after checking out a few fashion history books, it seems women in the mid-to-late 18th century wore large-brimmed hats and fans, not parasols…Can anybody correct me?
Parasols are more of a 1850 -1870 fashion thing… I see them associated with second empire (possibly Bourbon restoration : 1815-1850) pictures rather than pre revolution stuff, and they definitely disappear with the Prussian war of 1870.
