EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of French fashion in 1914, as depicted in this photograph from the comedy "Le Mannequin" by M. Gavault. The image features two elegant actresses, Mlle. Ducouret and Mlle. Magde Lanzy, showcasing the latest trends for springtime wear. Their outfits, inspired by the play, embody the essence of the era's fashionable yet impractical designs. The rounded over hips, tapered to ankles, create a silhouette that was both alluring and impeding, making every step a delicate dance. The hobble skirts, as they came to be known, were a daring innovation, pushing the boundaries of femininity and comfort. The actresses' heads are adorned with exquisite hats, each more extraordinary than the last. Mlle. Ducouret wears a tricorne hat, a classic style that had been popularized during the 18th century, now reimagined with a modern twist. Her hat boasts a tall, pointed crown and a wide brim, adorned with an extravagant feather standing on end. Mlle. Magde Lanzy, on the other hand, dons a pith helmet, a style that had gained popularity due to its association with adventure and exploration. Her hat is further embellished with a pair of bird wings, adding a whimsical touch to her ensemble. The women's short, wavy hairstyles, which were also a hallmark of the time, frame their faces, completing their fashionable appearance. This photograph is a captivating glimpse into the world of spring 1914 fashion, where innovation and impracticality reigned supreme.
