EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the elegance of the early 1900s with this stunning advertisement for Charles Lee & Son dressmakers, showcasing a figure-hugging evening dress from 1909. The fashionable woman in the image exudes grace and sophistication, her silhouette accentuated by the fitted bodice and narrow waistline that were popular during the Edwardian era. The dress's standout feature is its luxurious fishtail train, which sweeps the floor in a dramatic and elegant manner, adding to the overall allure of the ensemble. The intricate beading and embroidery on the bodice and sleeves add a touch of glamour and opulence, making this dress a must-have for any special occasion. The Wigmore costume, as it was often referred to during this period, was a symbol of wealth and status, and Charles Lee & Son were renowned for their expert craftsmanship and attention to detail. This advertisement is a testament to the beauty and elegance of fashion from the early 1900s and serves as a reminder of the timeless allure of a well-designed evening gown.
