Step back in time to the elegant and refined fashion scene of the early 1910s, as depicted in this stunning photograph from the Illustrated London News. The image showcases two beautiful gowns, perfect for the afternoon hours of a winter season in 1913. On the left, a woman gracefully wears a charmeuse gown with a draped skirt and a quaint little coatee. The gown's long tunic, made of the same color mousseline de soie, adds an extra layer of sophistication. The material reappears in the bodice, creating a harmonious and cohesive look. The outfit is completed with a matching hat adorned with plumes and a fur shawl. On the right, another woman captivates the viewer with her effective dress, featuring a draped skirt of black charmeuse and a short tunic effect in velvet. The bodice is made of black lace, adding a delicate touch to the overall design. A wide ceinture of rose-colored taffetas finishes off the ensemble, adding a pop of color to the monochromatic look. These Edwardian-era women exude an air of grace and elegance, their hats perched atop their heads, adorned with plumes and birds, adding a touch of whimsy to their winter attire. The intricate details of the gowns and the models' poised poses transport us back to a bygone era, making this photograph a true treasure for fashion enthusiasts and historians alike.
