EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1906, features the English singer and actress, Zena Dare, elegantly modeling suitable attire for cricket. Dare, born in 1887, was a renowned figure in the entertainment industry during the Edwardian era. Her radiant smile and effortless grace are on full display as she poses before the cricket wicket, with the stumps carefully arranged behind her. The fashionable clothing she wears reflects the trends of the time. She dons a stylish blouse with a high collar and long sleeves, paired with a flowing, ankle-length skirt. The skirt, adorned with intricate floral patterns, gracefully billows out as she adjusts her pose, revealing a glimpse of her stockings and shoes. The ensemble is both feminine and practical, perfect for the active nature of the sport. The photograph, taken by the Illustrated London News Ltd, captures the essence of the early 1900s. It showcases the fusion of art and sport, as Dare's theatrical background and the popular pastime of cricket come together in a visually striking image. The photograph not only highlights the fashion trends of the era but also serves as a testament to the versatility of clothing and the ability to adapt it to various activities. Zena Dare's timeless beauty and the allure of cricket come alive in this photograph, offering a glimpse into the past and the unique blend of art, fashion, and sport during the Edwardian period.
