EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming selection of Edwardian women, captured in a photograph from 1904, showcases the elegance and allure of feathered hats that were a popular fashion trend during this era. The women, all French, are depicted wearing cartwheel hats adorned with plumes of feathers, their hats worn high atop their heads. The intricate detailing of the hats, with their sweeping brims and towering feather plumes, adds a sense of grandeur and sophistication to their ensembles. The Edwardian period, named after King Edward VII who reigned from 1901 to 1910, was a time of opulence and extravagance in fashion. Feathered hats, in particular, were a symbol of wealth and status, as the exotic and often expensive imported feathers used to make them were a luxury item. The women in this photograph exude confidence and charm as they proudly display their fashionable headpieces. Their outfits, while not visible in the photograph, would have been equally impressive, reflecting the latest trends in Edwardian fashion. The variety of feather colors and textures, from the rich, glossy black of raven feathers to the delicate, airy plumes of ostrich feathers, adds to the overall visual appeal of the image. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the fashionable world of Edwardian women and their love for feathered hats. The timeless beauty of these hats continues to captivate us today, making them a popular choice for vintage-inspired fashion and costume design.
