An Introduction

History

  • The victorian era lasted between the year 1837 and 1901
  • The death of Prince Albert in 1861, queen Victoria's husband, caused her to go into deep mourning, which would reflect in the way she would dress everyday (Ex. black gowns, black bonnets, veils.)
  • High mortality rates also impacted societies way of mourning and cherishing those who have long gone.
  • Society adopted these practices to honor the dead by also adhering to mourning practices, clothing and sentimental jewelry such as hair art and tintype photography.

A brief overlook on Victorian mourning

Stages of mourning

  • Full Mourning: A widow dressed in mourning for a full year. A black veil (Also known as Widow's Weeds) was to cover her face the entire time. No jewelry was permitted
  • Second Mourning: Veil was able to be lifted and worn behind the head. Jewelry was permitted, but widow was still required to wear black. This period lasted for 9 months
  • Half mourning: subdued colors were socially acceptable. These included the colors purple as well as grey with black trim, this period lasted for 3 months.
