EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the early 1900s with this elegant advertisement featuring a woman in a fashionable Shoolbred motoring coat from 1905. The coat, made of a stout and soft grey rubber material with a wool satin back, collar, and pipings of kid, was designed specifically for women who enjoyed the thrill of motoring and driving. The woman in the advertisement wears a chic hat to complete her ensemble, adding to the edgy and modern feel of the image. The double-breasted, full-length coat was a must-have for women during the Edwardian era, providing both style and functionality for those who embraced the newfound freedom of transportation. The Shoolbred coat was a testament to the innovative fashion trends of the time, combining the latest materials and designs to create a coat that was both practical for motoring and stylish for social engagements. The rubber material was a groundbreaking choice for outerwear, providing insulation and protection from the elements, while the wool satin back added a touch of sophistication and luxury. This advertisement, published in the Illustrated London News in January 18, 1905, showcases the Shoolbred coat in all its glory, inviting women to embrace the latest fashion trends and join the motoring revolution. The image captures the spirit of the era, with its bold lines, vibrant colors, and dynamic pose, making it a must-have for any collection of early 20th-century fashion and advertising.
