EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past and experience the elegance and charm of an Edwardian ice skating outfit as depicted in this photograph from 1903. The fine blue serge skirt of this costume, trimmed with coarse black braid and black and white tassels, exudes an air of sophistication and practicality, perfect for gliding across the ice with grace and style. The embroidered yoke of green silk adds a touch of refinement and delicacy to the ensemble, while the front and ruffles of ivory lace provide an elegant contrast against the darker hues of the skirt. Completing this fashionable and sporty outfit is a hat, likely made of felt or velvet, adorned with a simple ribbon or bow. The woman wearing this costume embodies the spirit of the Edwardian era, where women embraced the outdoors and engaged in winter sports with equal parts elegance and enthusiasm. This photograph, taken by the esteemed Illustrated London News Ltd and featuring the image ID [insert image ID from Mary Evans Prints Online], offers a glimpse into the past and serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of ice skating and the fashionable attire that accompanied it over a century ago.
