EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the tumultuous backdrop of the First World War, a new wave of fashion was making its way from Paris to the shores of England, bringing a glimmer of hope and excitement to the lives of women on the home front. In this photograph, the elegant and radiant Miss Margot Erskine models the latest innovation in women's clothing: the tea pyjamas. The year was 1918, and the world was in the throes of the Great War. Amidst the chaos and uncertainty, the fashion world was abuzz with the arrival of this daring new trend. Tea pyjamas, a fusion of Eastern and Western influences, were poised to revolutionize the way women dressed in their private spaces. Miss Erskine, with her refined grace and poise, dons the tea pyjamas with effortless ease. The ensemble, a charming blend of trousers and knickers, offers a practical yet fashionable alternative to the traditional tea gown. The high-waisted trousers, cinched at the waist with a sash, are paired with a loose-fitting blouse, creating a look that is both comfortable and chic. The Sketch magazine, a leading arbiter of fashion trends, pondered the possibility of the skirt being eliminated altogether in favour of such fashions. The tea pyjamas represented a departure from the restrictive and ornate clothing of the past, offering women a newfound sense of freedom and ease. As the war raged on, the tea pyjamas became a symbol of the changing times. They represented a shift towards practicality and comfort, while still maintaining an air of sophistication and style. And so, as the world adjusted to the new realities of the post-war era, the tea pyjamas stood as a testament to the enduring power of fashion to bring joy and inspiration, even in the darkest of times.
