EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past with this postcard image of a Can-Can dancer from the early 1900s. Deviating from the usual norms of modest undergarments, this daring performer showcases her playful side by proudly displaying her matching knickers. The Can-Can dance, a lively and provocative spectacle, first gained popularity in the Montmartre district of Paris during the late 19th century. This postcard, dated 1902, offers a glimpse into the history of this iconic dance and the evolution of fashion. The Can-Can dance was characterized by its energetic steps, high kicks, and the daringly short skirts that revealed the dancers' legs. However, it was the undergarments that truly set the Can-Can dancers apart. While the traditional bloomers and corsets of the time were intended to conceal the female form, these dancers embraced a more revealing look. This image of a Can-Can dancer with skimpier underwear than usual is a testament to the bold and rebellious spirit of the performers. The dancer's confident expression and the playful way she holds her skirt suggest a sense of freedom and liberation. The intricate details of her costume, from the lace trim on her knickers to the ruffles on her petticoat, add to the allure of this postcard. As you hold this piece of history in your hands, imagine the excitement and intrigue it would have caused when it was first sent as a message of flirtation or admiration over a century ago. This postcard is not only a beautiful work of art but also a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of Can-Can dancers and the daring fashion trends of the early 1900s.
