British High Society in St Moritz, 1925: A Timeless Winter Escape This photograph transports us back to the Jazz Age of the 1920s, specifically to the luxurious winter resort of St Moritz in Switzerland. The Marquess of Donegal, an esteemed member of the British aristocracy, is seen here in the company of the elegant Miss Leslie Foster. The pair, dressed in the height of 1920s fashion, exude an air of sophistication and glamour as they enjoy a moment's respite from their winter sports activities. The Marquess, with his dapper attire and confident demeanor, cuts an imposing figure against the pristine white backdrop of the Swiss Alps. Miss Foster, in her chic fur-trimmed coat and cloche hat, embodies the epitome of 1920s style and grace. The pair's youthful energy and vibrant spirit are palpable, adding to the overall allure of this enchanting scene. St Moritz, renowned for its stunning natural beauty and luxurious amenities, was a favorite destination for the British High Society during the 1920s. The resort offered a myriad of winter sports, including skiing, ice skating, and bobsledding, which provided ample opportunities for the wealthy elite to showcase their athleticism and social status. As the holiday season approached, St Moritz transformed into a magical winter wonderland, attracting visitors from around the world. The Marquess and Miss Foster, no doubt, were among the many who sought the thrill of the slopes and the charm of the festive atmosphere. This photograph, taken in 1925, captures a moment in time when the glamour and excitement of the Jazz Age collided with the natural beauty and elegance of the Swiss Alps. It serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of winter escapes and the timeless appeal of the 1920s.
