EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the elegant world of Edwardian fashion with this photograph of women adorned in soft and voluminous hairstyles, accessorized with delicate disc-shaped combs inspired by nature. Dated back to 1909, this image showcases the height of feminine beauty during this era, as women embraced softer, more natural-looking hairdos in contrast to the severe updos of the previous decade. The combs, known as "Advert Le Nenuphar," were a popular choice for evening wear, their small, disc-shaped design adding a touch of refinement and sophistication to the hairstyle. The motifs on these combs were often inspired by nature, such as the intricate patterns of water lilies, adding an organic and ethereal touch to the overall look. The women in this photograph exude an air of grace and elegance, their pompadour hairstyles piled high and cascading down their backs, framing their faces with soft waves and tendrils. The combs are strategically placed on one side, drawing attention to the delicate features of their faces and the intricate details of their hairdos. This photograph is a testament to the artistry and creativity of the Edwardian era, a time when fashion was an expression of beauty, elegance, and the natural world. The disc-shaped combs, with their delicate motifs, were just one of many innovative designs that defined this era, reflecting the ingenuity and imagination of the designers and artists of the time. As you gaze at this image, you can almost hear the rustle of silk gowns and the soft chatter of women preparing for an evening out, transporting you back to a time of glamour and sophistication.
