EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the radiant beauty and allure of Amy Gwen Wilson as she embodies the exotic character of Jade at the Jewels of the Empire Ball, held on the 26th of November 1930, at the prestigious Park Lane Hotel in London. The Hon. Mrs Henry Mond, Wilson's real-life identity, is transformed in this image, transporting us back to the glamour and opulence of the 1930s. Jade's stunning costume, adorned with intricate beading and shimmering jewels, reflects the richness and grandeur of the British Empire at its height. Wilson's expressive eyes and confident posture evoke the mysterious and alluring essence of the character, making this photograph a true treasure from a bygone era. The Jewels of the Empire Ball was a charity event, where London's high society gathered to raise funds for various causes. The event's exotic theme allowed attendees to let their imaginations run wild, resulting in a night filled with fancy dress and historical reenactments. Wilson's portrayal of Jade was undoubtedly one of the most memorable and captivating costumes of the evening. This photograph is a testament to the power of costume and the transformative effect it can have on an individual. It also serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural significance of charity events and the role they play in bringing communities together.
