Dresses Do Maketh a Woman

The outfit of a woman definitely speaks a lot about her personality

. It doesn't stop there; just by glancing at a lady's attire, you could even tell which era and country she belongs to. Think about it what are the images that come to your mind when you picture the grand duchesses of England? Long and flowing graceful gowns, of course! On the contrary, think about the attractive female lead in a contemporary novel of Sidney Sheldon. She would probably be dressed in a chic ensemble tailored to crisp perfection!

Female characters in classic romance novels are very often portrayed as gentle ladies with just the right amount of propriety. Victorian fashion evolved over the ages, but it always lived up to the principles of style dictated by the society. There were dresses for various occasions walking dresses, ball gowns, evening dresses, and carriage outfits, to name a few. Lace and satin were often used. Petticoats, chemises, corsets, and pantalettes were an integral part of a proper lady's wardrobe. Accessorizing would be done with the help of hats, bonnets, shawls, and gloves. Romance books by Georgette Heyer are perfect if you want a glimpse of Victorian fashion. In the novel "Arabella", a young lady pretends to be a rich heiress just to retain her dignity in front of a wealthy and influential man. In the book, she is dressed in beautiful, flouncy gowns that add to her charming looks.

In stark contrast to these mild-tempered and courteous ladies, heroines of today's novels are portrayed as upfront and go-getters, with a strong mind and thriving career. The cover page of Danielle Steele's "Sisters" is an insight into the characters of the four sisters, around whom the story revolves. Their outfits and sense of fashion are used to emphasize the difference in their personalities - fashionable supermodel Candy, successful TV show producer Tammy, ambitious lawyer Sabrina, and dreamy artist Annie.

Read these interesting books and you will discover that dresses, after all, do maketh a woman! Diesel-ebooks is an online bookstore with a wide range of ebooks from various genres.
