EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of summer fashion from Paris in 1913, where decolletage and slits up to the knee were the height of elegance and allure. In this image, a woman in an Edwardian gown, adorned with a delicate floral corsage, playfully holds a fan as she dons a layered toque and parasol. The dress, with its flowing, non-clinging fabric, reveals a hint of shoulder and a peekaboo view of her ankles. The fashionable female model, dressed in the latest summer frock, exudes an air of sophistication and grace. Her gown, featuring a subtle sheen and intricate beading, is accessorized with a feathered hat and a feather fan, adding a touch of whimsy and playfulness to her ensemble. As the pre-war era came to a close, women's fashion began to shift towards a more relaxed and feminine aesthetic. Gone were the restrictive corsets and heavy fabrics of the Victorian era, replaced by lighter, more breathable materials that allowed for greater freedom of movement. The decolletage and slit trends, while daring for the time, symbolized a newfound confidence and sensuality in women's fashion. This evocative photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us back to a time when fashion was an art form, and the simple act of wearing a dress could be an occasion for celebration and self-expression.
