EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of fashion during the Great War era, specifically in the year 1917. The image showcases a young woman dressed in a costume that reflects the practicality and simplicity of the time. The short gathered skirt and loose, shapeless jacket with over-stitching are characteristic of the boyish, war-time silhouette. The lace-up shoes with a Louis heel add a touch of elegance and sophistication to the ensemble, while the white fox fur stole adds a luxurious and glamorous element. The woman completes her outfit with a straw hat, a popular accessory during this period, which not only protected her from the elements but also added a chic touch to her look. The gloves, though not visible in the image, were an essential part of the war-time wardrobe, providing both functionality and style. This costume, with its historical significance, transports us back in time to the early 20th century, offering a glimpse into the fashion trends of the Great War era. The use of natural fibers, such as wool for the jacket and lace for the shoes, reflects the resourcefulness and ingenuity of the time. The over-stitching on the jacket and the lace-up detailing on the shoes demonstrate the attention to craftsmanship and the importance of handmade items during this period. The white fox fur stole, a symbol of luxury and opulence, adds a touch of glamour to the otherwise practical outfit. The fur was a popular choice among the wealthy and fashionable during this time, and the use of white fur, in particular, was a status symbol. This photograph is a testament to the unique and intriguing fashion trends of the Great War era and offers a fascinating glimpse into the past.
