EDITORS COMMENTS
This elegant image captures the essence of Parisian fashion in the early 1900s, as a stylish woman takes a moment to prepare herself in the comfort of her luxurious visiting toilette. Dressed in a chic black plush gown, adorned with delicate bands of silk, this fashionable figure exudes an air of sophistication and refinement. The gown's waist is cinched with a stylish buckle, while old silver buttons add a touch of timeless elegance. The woman's hat, perched atop her carefully coiffed hair, completes the look of this fashionable ensemble. The visiting toilette, a necessary accessory for women of the time, was a portable dressing room that allowed them to change clothes and apply makeup while away from home. This image, taken in January 1901, offers a glimpse into the opulence and intricacy of Edwardian fashion. The black plush fabric, a popular choice for formal wear during this period, was often used to create voluminous skirts and fitted bodices. The silk bands, a common embellishment, added a luxurious touch to the gown, while the waist buckle and old silver buttons added a sense of structure and classicism. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship that went into creating fashionable attire during the Edwardian era.
