EDITORS COMMENTS
at the Republic Theatre in New York City, 1916, was a spectacular cabaret show that left audiences enchanted and yearning for more. Among the many acts that graced the stage, none were more captivating than the Dolly Sisters, Rosie (Jansieka) and Jenny (Roszicka). The sisters hailed from Hungary and brought an exotic flair to the American stage with their lively jazz dances and playful antics. The sisters' outfits, designed by the renowned fashion designer Lucile, Lady Duff Gordon, were the talk of the town. Their dancing frocks, a departure from the traditional, were a bold statement of the changing times. The skirts were short and full, allowing the sisters to move freely and gracefully across the stage. The bonnets, adorned with feathers and flowers, added a touch of whimsy and glamour to their ensembles. Lucile, a pioneer in modern fashion, was known for her innovative designs that reflected the spirit of the Jazz Age. Her creations for the Dolly Sisters were no exception. The sisters' outfits were a perfect blend of style and substance, allowing them to embody the age's spirit of freedom and self-expression. As the sisters danced in tandem, their frocks swirling around them, the audience was transported to a world of excitement and glamour. The sisters' age and ethnicity only added to their allure, making them a unique and unforgettable presence on the stage. The Dolly Sisters' performances at the Republic Theatre marked a turning point in the history of cabaret and entertainment. Their collaboration with Lucile, Lady Duff Gordon, brought fashion and performance together in a way that had never been seen before. The sisters' dancing frocks, with their short skirts and flamboyant bonnets, became a symbol of the Jazz Age and continue to inspire fashion and performance to this day.
