EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1962, Mrs. Anthony Royle, the wife of the Member of Parliament for Richmond, dons a bold and extravagant hat designed by the renowned milliner, Peter Shepherd. The hat, a striking busby design, has been transformed into a mass of vibrant buttercup petals, adding a playful and whimsical touch to her summertime ensemble. Mrs. Royle's outfit complements the floral hat perfectly. She wears a creamy satin dress and coat, both designed by Maggi Shepherd, that elegantly frame her figure and enhance the ostentatiousness of the hat. The color palette of the photograph is dominated by the warm hues of the buttercups, creating a charming and nostalgic feel that is reminiscent of the 1960s. The hat, with its bold and ostentatious design, was a symbol of the extravagant fashion trends of the 1960s. Peter Shepherd's innovative use of flowers in millinery design was a popular trend during this era, and Mrs. Royle's hat is a testament to the creativity and artistry of the time. The profile view of the photograph highlights the intricate detailing of the hat and the graceful lines of Mrs. Royle's coat, making for a stunning visual display. This photograph captures the essence of summer fashion in the 1960s, with its vibrant colors, bold designs, and playful use of flowers in millinery. Mrs. Anthony Royle's outfit, designed by Maggi Shepherd, and her floral hat, designed by Peter Shepherd, are a perfect example of the fashion trends of the time and continue to inspire fashion enthusiasts today.
