EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print captures a snapshot of fashion from 1915, showcasing the styles worn by a girl and a woman during that era. The young girl is dressed in a striking red jacket with rounded borders, paired with a short tartan skirt, spats, and a stylish straw hat. Her outfit exudes youthful energy and playfulness.
In contrast, the woman is seen wearing a more sophisticated ensemble consisting of a grey checked long kilt-style skirt with vertical front pockets, complemented by a short jacket and an elegant tiny hat with veil. Her attire reflects the refined elegance typical of women's fashion during this period.
The setting of the photograph appears to be on a scooter terrace adorned with ornate urns, adding to the overall vintage charm of the image. This glimpse into early 20th-century style provides insight into the sartorial choices of women and children during World War I.
Overall, this print serves as both a historical document and an aesthetic delight for those interested in costume history. The juxtaposition of the girl's vibrant red ensemble against the woman's muted grey outfit creates an intriguing visual contrast that highlights the diversity of fashion trends in 1915.
