EDITORS COMMENTS
A Blustery Day for Millinery, March 8, 1911 This delightful cartoon, published in Puck magazine on March 8, 1911, captures the playful chaos that often accompanies a windy day and the fashionable obsession with hats during the early 20th century. The illustration shows several dapper gentlemen in top hats and overcoats in hot pursuit of a woman, her wind-blown hat held aloft by the gusts. Her elegant feathered hat, a symbol of the latest March millinery trends, has become a coveted prize, as each man vies for the honor of returning it to its rightful owner. The whimsical scene is reminiscent of the popular pastime of hat-snatching, a common occurrence during this era when fashionable headpieces were both a status symbol and a source of amusement. This cartoon not only highlights the importance of millinery in women's fashion but also showcases the lighthearted spirit and sense of camaraderie among the men. The intricate details in this illustration, from the delicate lace collars to the well-tailored suits, provide a glimpse into the elegance and sophistication of the early 1900s. The use of bold lines and dynamic composition adds to the lively energy of the scene, making it a captivating and entertaining representation of the fashionable world of March millinery during this time.
