Fashions Latest Month Parasols Stroll
August Afternoon - A Timeless Summer Tradition, 1915
EDITORS COMMENTS
The month of August, synonymous with the height of summer, is captured in this enchanting photograph of two elegant women enjoying a leisurely stroll on the beach. Dressed in the latest summer fashions of the era, they epitomize the grace and sophistication of the early 20th century. The woman on the left dons a flowing, ankle-length, floral maxi dress with a fitted bodice and a full skirt that billows gently in the breeze. She accessorizes her outfit with a wide-brimmed, white straw hat adorned with a delicate ribbon and a pair of elegant, high-heeled sandals. In her hand, she carries a large, intricately designed parasol, shielding herself from the sun's rays. Her companion, on the right, wears a shorter, fitted, striped dress with a high waistline and a full, pleated skirt. She complements her outfit with a narrow-brimmed, sunbonnet-style parasol and a pair of low-heeled, strap sandals. Both women exude an air of refinement and ease, their parasols adding a touch of whimsy and charm to the scene. The beach behind them is dotted with other leisurely strollers, sunbathers, and children playing in the shallow waters. The clear blue sky, dotted with fluffy white clouds, and the gentle waves lapping at the shore create a serene and idyllic setting. This photograph, taken in 1915, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when life seemed to move a little slower, and the simple pleasures of a summer day on the beach were cherished. This image, with its historical significance and timeless beauty, is a must-have for any collection of vintage photographs or those interested in fashion history. It serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of summer and the traditions that have stood the test of time.
