EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the essence of luxury and elegance from the Roaring Twenties, featuring an evening wrap made of the finest Russian ermine and white fox fur. The wrap, which can be considered as a coat, is adorned with barrel sleeves that droop gracefully, and a flared hemline that accentuates the feminine silhouette of the wearer. The 1920s were known for their innovative and fashion-forward designs, and this wrap embodies the season's most coveted trends. The lining of the wrap is bordered with ermine tails, adding an extra touch of opulence and sophistication. The ermine, a rare and valuable fur, was highly sought after during this era for its luxurious feel and distinctive white fur with black tips. The white fox fur adds an elegant contrast to the ermine, making this wrap a true statement piece. The wrap was available for purchase at Harrods, a renowned department store in London, for the price of four hundred and fifty guineas. This exorbitant price tag speaks to the exclusivity and rarity of the fur used in the wrap, making it a desirable possession for the wealthy and fashionable women of the time. This photograph is a captivating reminder of the opulence and glamour of the 1920s, and the enduring allure of fur as a symbol of luxury and style.
