EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1908, features the talented actress Phyllis Le Grand in the role of Diane from the play "The Quaker Girl." In this stunning image, she dons a hat reminiscent of the iconic Merry Widow hat made famous by the renowned actress Lily Elsie during her performance in the same title play, produced a few years prior. The Merry Widow hat, a symbol of the Edwardian era's opulence and elegance, is characterized by its large crown and extravagant ostrich plumes. This fashion statement was a must-have accessory for the high society women of the time, reflecting their affluence and refinement. Le Grand's costume, adorned with intricate beadwork and lace, further emphasizes the historical significance of this photograph. The Directoire-inspired design, with its clean lines and simple silhouette, adds to the overall allure of the image. The Merry Widow hat, with its grandeur and sophistication, became a symbol of the Belle Époque era, representing the extravagance and indulgence of the time. Phyllis Le Grand, with her striking appearance and impeccable fashion sense, embodies the essence of this iconic hat and the historical period it represents. This photograph, taken from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the rich history of theater and fashion during the early 20th century. It serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of the Merry Widow hat and the captivating performances of its wearers, such as Phyllis Le Grand, who brought these iconic characters to life on the stage.
