Bohemian style
(詳細はBohemian" is applied to people who live unconventional, usually artistic, lives. The adherents of the "Bloomsbury Group", which formed around the Stephen sisters, Vanessa Bell and Virginia Woolf in the early 20th century, are among the best-known examples. The original "Bohemians" were travellers or refugees from central Europe (hence, the French ''bohémien'', for "gypsy").
Reflecting on the fashion style of "boho-chic" in the early years of the 21st century, the ''Sunday Times'' thought it ironic that "fashionable girls wore ruffly floral skirts in the hope of looking bohemian, nomadic, spirited and non-bourgeois", whereas "gypsy girls themselves ... are sexy and delightful precisely because they do not give a hoot for fashion".〔''Sunday Times Style'', 19 June 2005〕 By contrast, in the late 19th century and first half of the 20th, aspects of Bohemian fashion reflected the lifestyle itself.
== Pre-Raphaelites ==
In 1848 William Makepeace Thackeray used the word ''bohemianism'' in his novel ''Vanity Fair''. In 1862, the ''Westminster Review'' described a Bohemian as "simply an artist or ''littérateur'' who, consciously or unconsciously, secedes from conventionality in life and in art". During the 1860s the term was associated in particular with the pre-Raphaelite movement, the group of artists and aesthetes of which Dante Gabriel Rossetti was the most prominent:〔The original Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood had been formed in 1848 by William Holman Hunt, Rossetti and John Everett Millais, who aspired to a style of painting that they felt had been lost since the time of Raphael (1483–1520).〕
As the 1860s progressed, Rossetti would become the grand prince of bohemianism as his deviations from normal standards became more audacious. And as he became this epitome of the unconventional, his egocentric demands necessarily required his close friends to remodel their own lives around him. His bohemianism was like a web in which others became trapped – none more so than William and Jane Morris.〔Franny Moyle (2009) ''Desperate Romantics''〕
