EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph from 1916, a woman dressed in elegant attire is captured while playfully holding a dog adorned with an extravagant hat. The woman's hat, made of sleek black taffeta, is a stunning accessory that adds an air of sophistication to her outfit. The hat's crown, on the other hand, is crafted from delicate beige moire, creating a beautiful contrast against the dark background. The beige moire crown is further accentuated by a head ornament that clasps the ends together in front, adding an element of elegance and intrigue. The dog, dressed in a matching black and beige ensemble, gazes up at its owner with a curious expression, as if wondering what all the fuss is about. This photograph is a testament to the fashion trends of the early 20th century, where extravagant hats and elaborate costumes were all the rage. The use of high-quality materials like taffeta and moire added a touch of luxury to everyday wear, making this a must-have accessory for any well-dressed woman of the time. The woman's expression of joy and playfulness as she holds the dog adds a sense of warmth and affection to the photograph, making it a timeless piece that captures the essence of the human-animal bond. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of a bygone era, where fashion and fun went hand in hand. The hat featured in this photograph is available for purchase from Debenham and Freebody, a renowned retailer of fashionable accessories and clothing during that time. This photograph is a perfect addition to any collection of vintage fashion or a wonderful conversation starter for any home decor.
