EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this vintage print is a moment of elegance and grandeur at the St James Palace Garden Party, held in aid of the League of Mercy. The year was 1920, an era between the wars when royalty and high society gathered to support charitable causes. Princess Alice, Countess of Athlone, radiates regal charm as she converses with Lady Alexander amidst a sea of fashionable aristocrats. The photo showcases the epitome of ladies' fashion during that time - extravagant hats adorned with feathers, capes draping gracefully over shoulders, and top hats adding a touch of formality to the occasion. These sartorial choices reflect both status and style. Princess Alice herself holds significant lineage as she was Queen Victoria's granddaughter. Her presence adds an air of prestige to this social gathering where laughter and conversation fill the air. It is evident that attendees are not only enjoying each other's company but also contributing towards fundraising efforts for noble causes. This image transports us back to an era marked by opulence and societal responsibility. It reminds us that even amidst turbulent times between two world wars, acts of charity prevailed within high society circles.
