EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a unique moment in fashion history - the sight of crinoline fashions at the Montmartre bicycle race in Paris. Taken on 20th March 1932, this image showcases the extravagant style choices of both participants and spectators alike. The towering crinoline dresses, with their wide bell-shaped skirts supported by hoops or petticoats, were all the rage during this era between the wars. As women pedaled through the streets of Montmartre on their bicycles, they defied convention by combining practicality with high fashion. Not only did these daring cyclists don their crinolines for the race itself, but even sightseers who gathered to watch couldn't resist joining in on this sartorial trend. The photograph offers a glimpse into a world where fashion was not limited to runways but permeated every aspect of life. In this monochrome snapshot from TopFoto. co. uk's collection, we are transported back to an enchanting time when Europe was buzzing with artistic innovation and social change. It serves as a reminder that even amidst economic uncertainty and political turmoil, people found solace in expressing themselves through clothing. As we admire this evocative image today, it is impossible not to marvel at how fashion has evolved over time while still retaining its power to captivate our imaginations.
