EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the summer of 1928 and revel in the elegance and charm of two exquisitely designed Ascot gowns, created by the renowned British designer Norman Hartnell. On the left, a chiffon dress in soft shades of ivory and black presents a captivating blend of modern printed patterns with a box pleated skirt and a broad black leather belt. The ensemble is completed with a large Bangkok hat, adding an air of exotic allure. On the right, an equally stunning design in duck egg blue crepe showcases the tailored style that was popular during the 1920s. The dress features a tight-fitting silhouette, while the coat adds an extra layer of sophistication. The hem of the dress is adorned with a deep flounce of the palest grey fox fur, adding a touch of luxury. The neat toilette is finished off with a tight-fitting helmet hat of felt, which perfectly complements the overall look. Norman Hartnell, a leading figure in haute couture during the 1920s, was known for his innovative designs and impeccable attention to detail. These two Ascot gowns are prime examples of his ability to create fashionable and elegant attire that continues to inspire and captivate audiences even today. With their modern prints, tailored styles, and luxurious fabrics, these gowns encapsulate the essence of summer fashion in 1928.
