This photograph captures Paula Gellibrand, the elegant and enigmatic socialite, adorned in a stunning headpiece designed by the renowned milliner Elspeth Phelps. The image, taken in the early 1920s, showcases Paula's sophistication and flair for fashion as she poses with poise and confidence. Paula Gellibrand was the wife of the 1st Marquis de Casa Maury, a prominent figure in British society during the Roaring Twenties. Known for her impeccable style and grace, Paula was a regular fixture at high-society events and was often featured in the pages of popular society magazines, including The Tatler.

The 1920s were a time of great change and excitement, and this photograph captures the essence of the era. Paula's timeless beauty and Elspeth's exquisite design come together to create a portrait that is as captivating today as it was nearly a century ago. This image is a reminder of a bygone era, a time of elegance, glamour, and sophistication, and a testament to the enduring power of fashion to transport us to another time and place.
