Southern belle (from French belle 'beautiful') is a colloquialism for a debutante in the planter class of the Antebellum South. [1]
The image of a Southern belle is often characterized by fashion elements such as a hoop skirt, a corset, pantalettes, a wide-brimmed straw hat, and gloves. As signs of tanning were considered working-class and unfashionable during this era, parasols and fans are also often represented. [1]
Southern belles were expected to marry respectable young men, and become ladies of society dedicated to the family and community. [1] The Southern belle archetype is characterized by Southern hospitality, a cultivation of beauty, and a flirtatious yet chaste demeanor. [2]
For example, Sallie Ward, who was born into the planter class of Kentucky in the Antebellum South, was called a Southern belle. [3]
