EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the summer of 1915 with this enchanting illustration from The Tatler Guide to Sales, a fashion section of the esteemed British magazine, The Tatler. Amidst the backdrop of the First World War, fashion continued to evolve, and this illustration showcases the trend towards wider, flared skirts that had replaced the restrictive hobble skirts of previous years. The ladies in this illustration are seen browsing through the summer sales, their parasols shielding them from the sun as they search for the latest fashion finds. The outfits on display reflect the elegance and sophistication of the era, with light, flowing dresses and blouses that would have been perfect for the warmer months. Despite the challenges of wartime, the home front remained a place of beauty and refinement, and fashion was no exception. Women continued to prioritize style and elegance, even as they adapted to the changing times. The summer sales provided an opportunity to update wardrobes with the latest fashions, while also offering a much-needed distraction from the harsh realities of war. This illustration is a captivating snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the world of fashion during wartime Britain. The wider, flared skirts of 1915 represented a departure from the previous decade's trends and paved the way for the fashionable styles of the 1920s. This illustration is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of fashion, even in the most challenging of times.
