EDITORS COMMENTS
In the midst of the tumultuous events of World War I, the fashionable and elegant continued to find moments of respite and refinement. This photograph, dated 1915, captures a woman checking her reflection in a compact mirror as she powders her nose. The woman's chic attire is accentuated by the striking black panne hat adorned with an elegant osprey feather from Gooch. The hat, a symbol of sophistication and style during the era, adds a touch of glamour and allure to her wartime appearance. The panne hat, a popular millinery trend during the early 1900s, was characterized by its smooth, rounded shape and often embellished with intricate details and decorative elements. Gooch, a renowned milliner of the time, was known for his exquisite use of feathers, ribbons, and other natural materials in his designs. The osprey feather, with its distinctive brown and gold hues, adds a regal and timeless quality to the hat. Despite the challenges and uncertainties of the war, the woman in the photograph takes a moment to focus on her beauty and personal presentation. The use of cosmetics, such as powder, was a common practice among women of the time, and the compact mirror allowed them to maintain their appearance even in the most unexpected places. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of fashion and beauty, even in the midst of adversity.
