EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Chic and Innovative Beachwardrobe: Shantung and Crepe Suits from the 1930s" This photograph, taken in 1931, showcases two exquisite beach suits from Marshall and Snelgrove of Oxford Street. The ensemble on the left is a harmonious blend of plain and printed shantung fabric, a textile known for its smooth, lightweight, and slightly textured surface. The suit's waistcoat, a striking element, introduces a fresh twist when removed, revealing a backless design. The corsage, a charming detail, is attached to a ribbon necklace, adding an allure of sophistication. On the right, we find a jumper and trousers crafted from artificial silk crepe de Chine. This fabric, renowned for its silky, smooth, and drapey texture, adds an air of elegance and comfort to the beachwear. The pyjama-style suit, a popular trend during the 1930s, exudes a sense of ease and relaxation, making it the perfect choice for a holiday by the sea. The 1930s, a decade marked by artistic innovation and fashion experimentation, is evident in these suits. The use of different textures and fabrics, such as shantung and crepe de Chine, combined with modern designs, allowed women to express their individuality and embrace the spirit of the times. This photograph is not only a testament to the fashion trends of the era but also a reminder of the timeless allure of the beach and the joy of dressing up for a holiday.
