EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of fashion in 1911 with a silhouette that is both elegant and restrictive. The high-waisted tunic dress features a narrow (hobble) skirt, typical of the Edwardian era, paired with a V-necked corsage made from an exotic floral fabric. The woman in the photograph carries an American sac handbag, adding to the historical authenticity of the ensemble.
The intricate details of this outfit showcase the craftsmanship and attention to detail that was characteristic of early 20th-century fashion. The chrysanthemum pattern on the fabric adds a touch of exoticism to an otherwise traditional silhouette.
The image transports us back in time to an era when women's clothing was not only stylish but also constricting. The hobble skirt, which limited movement due to its narrow design, was a popular trend during this period.
Overall, this print is a beautiful representation of early 20th-century fashion history. It serves as a reminder of how styles have evolved over time while still retaining elements that are timeless and classic. Mary Evans Picture Library has truly captured the essence of this era through their collection of prints like "1911 Silhouette / Gose.
