EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Lady Birdwood, a prominent figure in London society during the 1960s, wearing a bold and stylish Courrèges copy trouser suit from Wallis. Dated 1966, this image is a testament to the swinging sixties and the fashion revolution that was taking place in London at the time. The red suit, with its fitted top and flared bottoms, was a popular choice among women who wanted to embrace the modern, liberated look of the era. Lady Birdwood's outfit, sourced from Wallis, a leading British high street retailer, reflects the growing trend towards affordable yet fashionable clothing for women. The trouser suit, which was once considered a controversial choice for women, had become a staple in many wardrobes by the mid-1960s. The suit's sleek lines and vibrant color add a touch of glamour and sophistication to Lady Birdwood's ensemble. The photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the fashionable and bold women of the 1960s who dared to challenge traditional gender norms and embrace new trends. The swinging sixties were a time of social and cultural change, and this image captures the spirit of the era, with its focus on individuality, self-expression, and the power of fashion to transform the way we see ourselves and the world around us.
