EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of early 20th century fashion as a woman proudly models her new Edwardian bonnet. Dated 1912, the photograph exudes an air of elegance and refinement, transporting us back in time to a bygone era. The woman's outfit, consisting of a high-necked blouse with long sleeves and a full, flowing skirt, is typical of the Edwardian period. However, it is the bonnet that takes center stage in this photograph. The bonnet, with its tall, rounded crown and wide brim adorned with intricate lace and ribbon detailing, is a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail that defined the fashion of the time. The Edwardian era, which spanned from 1901 to 1910, was characterized by its opulence and extravagance. Women's fashion during this period placed great emphasis on modesty and femininity, as evidenced by the full skirts and high collars that were popular. The bonnet, with its various shapes and sizes, was an essential accessory that completed the look. This photograph, taken by ILN - Consolidated Archive Holdings Ltd, is a beautiful example of the traditional modern Edwardian look. It offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the intricacies of fashion from over a century ago. The woman's confident and poised demeanor adds to the allure of the image, making it a must-see for anyone with an interest in fashion history.
