1914 1918 1915 Considered Death Dress Fashion Flambeau Mourning Periodical September Veil World Bereavement Suitable
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the French periodical Le Flambeau, dated 18 September 1915, showcases a somber yet elegant women's fashion ensemble. The dress and hat with veil depicted in this illustration were considered suitable for mourning during a time of great loss and grief - the First World War. The image transports us back to an era when death and bereavement permeated every aspect of society. Women, particularly those directly affected by the war, sought solace in their attire as they mourned their fallen loved ones. This exquisite ensemble captures both the sorrow and resilience that characterized this tumultuous period. The intricate details of the dress highlight its timeless beauty while maintaining an air of modesty appropriate for mourning rituals. The flowing silhouette gracefully drapes over the wearer's figure, exuding elegance even amidst heartache. Accompanied by a delicate hat adorned with a veil, this ensemble serves as a symbolic representation of grief and remembrance. The veil delicately conceals emotions while adding an ethereal touch to the overall look. As we gaze upon this poignant photograph print, we are reminded not only of the ravages brought about by war but also of humanity's ability to find solace through artistry and self-expression. It is through these visual reminders that we honor those who have been lost while celebrating our collective strength to endure even in times of profound sadness.
