EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph from 1912, two elegant women turn their backs to the camera, showcasing the exquisite detail of their intricately designed Vanetian lace collars. The image, captured by the renowned Illustrated London News Ltd, transports us back in time to the Edwardian era, a period of opulence and refinement in fashion. The women's collars, reminiscent of the intricate lacework found in Venice, Italy, are a testament to the intricate craftsmanship and artistry of the time. The lace, with its delicate patterns and intricate designs, cascades down their backs, framing their slender necks and shoulders. The collars are not only a fashion statement but also a symbol of wealth and status. The women's outfits are also noteworthy, with their high-waisted, corseted silhouettes and full, voluminous skirts. The mantles, or capes, draped over their shoulders add an extra layer of warmth and sophistication to their ensembles. The women's hairstyles, with their neatly pinned up do's and elaborate headpieces, complete the look of the era. This photograph is a stunning reminder of the intricate and beautiful clothing that defined the Edwardian era. The Vanetian lace collars, with their delicate patterns and elegant design, continue to captivate us with their timeless beauty and allure. This image is not only a piece of fashion history but also a work of art that transports us back in time to a bygone era.
