EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enchanting allure of the Dolly Sisters, Rosie and Jenny, in their prime during their successful run in New York City's vibrant cabaret scene in 1918. The sisters, known for their youthful exuberance and daring performances, were pioneers of the flapper era, defying societal norms with their short bobbed hair, revealing costumes, and energetic jazz dance moves. At the height of their popularity, the Dolly Sisters graced the stages of some of New York's most renowned theaters, including the Winter Garden and the Palace. Their act, a dazzling blend of song, dance, and comedy, left audiences spellbound and yearning for more. In this image, Rosie and Jenny exude confidence and charisma, their youthful faces framed by their short, curly bobs and their eyes sparkling with mischief and excitement. Their outfits, a far cry from the restrictive clothing of the time, showcase the sisters' bold and modern sensibilities. The sisters' poses, playful and provocative, embody the spirit of the Roaring Twenties and the liberation of women from the confines of traditional gender roles. This photograph is a precious piece of history, offering a glimpse into a bygone era of jazz music, cabaret culture, and the emergence of the flapper phenomenon. The Dolly Sisters' legacy continues to inspire and captivate audiences, reminding us of the power of self-expression and the enduring allure of the Roaring Twenties.
