EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the elegant and fashionable world of Edwardian women in 1906, as depicted in this photograph from Mary Evans Picture Library. The image showcases a delightful selection of fashionable women donning oversized summer hats that were a hallmark of the era's style. The hats, perched high on the women's foreheads, were a statement piece of their outfits, often adorned with an array of trimmings that added a touch of sophistication and charm. The large brims provided ample shade from the summer sun, while the high crowns ensured that every hair was in place, often held up by intricate combs or hairpins. The hats themselves came in a variety of materials, from delicate tulle and mesh to sturdy straw. The trimmings were equally diverse, with ribbons, flowers, and lace adding a feminine touch to the bold designs. Some hats featured elaborate veils, adding an air of mystery and allure, while others were adorned with bows that cascaded down the back, adding a playful and whimsical touch. The millinery art of the Edwardian era was truly a marvel, with each hat a work of art in its own right. This photograph offers a glimpse into the fashionable world of Edwardian women, a time when hats were more than just headwear, they were a symbol of status, style, and elegance.
