Three Elegant Women Embrace the Summer Spirit in Braided Bathing Frocks, 1909 This charming photograph captures the essence of summer leisure and fashionable swimming attire at the turn of the 20th century. The image features three graceful women, each dressed in stylish and intricately braided bathing frocks, perfect for the warm summer months. The first woman on the left wears a beautiful, full-skirted frock with delicate lace detailing at the neckline and cuffs. Her cap, also adorned with lace, complements her outfit and shields her from the sun. She holds a sun hat in her hand, adding an extra layer of sun protection. The second woman in the middle dons a similar frock, but with a more fitted bodice and shorter skirt. Her cap, also featuring a braided design, sits atop her head, keeping her cool and stylish. She holds a pair of pumps in her hand, suggesting that she may be preparing to enter the water. The third woman on the right wears a frock with a high-neckline and long sleeves, making it a more modest choice for those who preferred more coverage. Her cap, also long-sleeved, matches her dress and protects her from the sun's rays. The women's bathing frocks, available from Swan & Edgar's department store, were a popular choice for summertime outings. The intricate braiding and lace detailing added a touch of elegance and sophistication to the otherwise casual swimwear. These fashionable garments allowed women to embrace the summer months in style and comfort, making them a must-have for any wardrobe. This photograph is a delightful reminder of the fashion trends and summer traditions of the Edwardian era, transporting us back in time to a simpler, more elegant age.
