EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the whimsical world of early 20th century French fashion with this image of a photographic model donning a large, back felt hat. The hat, a charming anachronism of the era, is rendered in both felt and fabric, its brim extending far beyond the model's shoulders in a playful nod to the extravagant headgear trends of the 1910s. But what's this? The model's hair, usually the star of the show in fashion photography, appears to be an unusual and odd combination of floral elements and a curious buttinhole motif. This collage-like creation adds a touch of artistic flair to the otherwise traditional hat design. The large, back felt hat was a popular choice among women during this period, offering both style and protection from the elements. However, its enveloping size and unusual adornments often drew criticism and mockery, earning these hats a moderate satirical reputation. This image, with its delightful blend of fashion, fantasy, and a hint of humor, invites us to appreciate the quirks and eccentricities of the past. Transport yourself back in time and marvel at the unique beauty and charm of this bygone era.
