Costumes worn by Prince Carl (later king Haakon of Norway), princess Maud (later queen Maud of Norway) and princess Victoria, photographed by Lafayette on July 2, 1897, and two of the attires worn. The Lafayette photo comes from the Royal Archives at Windsor. 

The occasion was a grand fancy dress ball hosted in London by the Duchess of Devonshire, in honour of queen Victoria's 1897 Jubilee. Whereas the queen herself was not at the ball, many of her closest family members were.

The theme of the ball was allegorical or historical (pre 1815) figures. The Prince of Wales, later king Edward VII, came as grand prior of "The Order of St. John of Jerusalem", while his wife Alexandra came as the French Renaissance queen Marguerite de Valois.

Their daughers were dressed as Renaissance ladies-in-waiting to the "Marguerite de Valois", in similar corseted, slashed and collared dresses, while Danish prince Carl appeared as a Danish Renaissance courtier. I have never been able to find out the colour of princess Victoria's dress. But the garments of her sister and brother in law were predominantely pink, purple and metallic. This we know because their attires are wonderfully preserved!

Princess Maud’s attire was made by French Morin-Blossier. The main fabric is a pink silk satin, appliquéed with sheer silk fabric in a diagonal pattern. The silk has then been embellished with silvery sequins and beads. In addition there's paned sleeves and bodice details with the same sheer silk poking through, and a Recitella-style standing collar and cuffs.

It is not known who made prince Carl’s attire. But it is made of a black silk satin elaborately embroidered with silk and beads. In addition elastic purple hoses of wool and silk, thigh-high black boots, lace collar and cuffs, and a merallic belt with sword. And not to forget the matching tall, plumed hat. To look the part, the prince even wore a fake beard, to get the proper Renaissance look!

Today the costumes are is in the care of The National Museum in Oslo (OK-1991-0256 and OK-1991-0251).

Things that might have inspired the POTO costume design 18/30: Meg Giry’s Masquerade jacket and historical examples

Row 1: Dark plum velvet jacket with bead embroidery and lace decorations. From the House of Worth, ca. 1890 (The Met), compared to the jacket worn by Meg Giry in Moscow.

Black riding ensemble consisting of embroidered silk jacket and veiled hat. From Morin Blossier ca. 1905 (The Met).

Much of what we perceive as “Victorian fashion” was revival styles - and especially revival of the Baroque and Rococo fashions. The “Habit a la Francaise” jackets of the 18th century became especially popular in the female wardrobe, both for riding habit jackets, and for various jacket-inspired dresses. Above is two such revival jackets from The Met, one with an accompanying veiled hat, compared to two Meg Giry Masquerade attires.

Morin-Blossier

French tailoring workshop, active in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, the creations of which may be found in numerous museums today. The founders Victoire Morin and Marie Blossier moved to Paris from Vienna some time after 1878, and were at the height of their success between 1885 and 1905. They specialized in the clothing of the court, which was heavily influenced by the fashions of Middle Europe, and became tailors to Queen Maud of Norway, Queen Alexandra of England, Queen Margherita of Italy, Queen Alexandra of Denmark, and the Russian Tsarinas. The workshop closed down after World War I. (x)

Queen Maud of Norway

Queen Maud was renowned for her stylish dress. Daughter of Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, she was born a princess and became Queen of Norway in 1905. She had exemplary taste and a strong interest in fashion, and her royal lifestyle required appropriate dress for every occasion. Her wardrobe includes a range of stunning creations dating from her wedding trousseau of 1896 to the latest House of Worth designs purchased just months before her death in 1938.
