EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the Roaring Twenties as embodied by the enigmatic dancer Babette, dressed in a stunning gown by the renowned French couturier Reville. The image, taken at Babette's appearances at the prestigious Grafton Galleries in London during 1924, showcases the dancer's effortless elegance and the era's flair for opulence and glamour. The gown, a masterpiece of 1920s fashion, is crafted from delicate rose pink tulle and adorned with shimmering diamante embroidery. The intricate beading adds a touch of sophistication and allure, reflecting the decadence and excitement of the jazz age. The ensemble is completed with an elegant ermine cloak, adding a sense of drama and mystery to Babette's performance. Babette's performances at the Grafton Galleries were a sensation, drawing large crowds of admirers and fashion enthusiasts. Her cabaret shows were a must-see event in London's vibrant cultural scene, and her costumes, designed by the best couturiers of the time, were the talk of the town. The 1920s were a time of great change and innovation, and the fashion of the era reflected this spirit of experimentation and creativity. Babette's gown by Reville is a testament to the beauty and artistry of this bygone era, and a reminder of the enduring allure of the Roaring Twenties.
