EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1907, showcases the elegance and charm of an Edwardian woman dressed in a stunning dust cloak. The loose-fitting, sleeveless cloak is made of shantung fabric, a popular choice for its smooth texture and lightweight quality. The cloak is trimmed with intricate red and black embroideries, adding an exquisite touch of detail and sophistication. The woman wears high-necked, long-sleeved blouse and a full, voluminous skirt beneath the cloak, both in simple, unadorned fabrics that allow the cloak to take center stage. She completes her outfit with a pair of white gloves and carries a parasol for protection from the sun. The woman's hat, also adorned with red and black embroideries, sits atop her head, its wide brim shading her face from the sun. A veil, made of delicate net or tulle, covers her head and falls down the back of the cloak, adding an air of mystery and allure. The Edwardian era, characterized by its opulence and intricate details, is evident in this photograph. The woman's attire reflects the fashionable trends of the time, with its high necks, long sleeves, and voluminous skirts. The use of embroideries and trimming adds an extra layer of elegance and refinement, making this photograph a true representation of the fashionable women of the early 1900s.
