Feather Maid Mantle Over Coat Prepare Servant Toque Trimmed Wears
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1912, captures the elegance and sophistication of Edwardian society as people prepare for an evening out. The man in the image wears a smartly tailored overcoat, trimmed with luxurious fur, over his dress clothes. He completes his attire with a stylish hat, likely a top hat or bowler, and carries a cane. The woman, equally as stunning, dons a fur-trimmed mantle that drapes gracefully over her evening gown. Her toque, adorned with a vertical feather, adds a touch of playfulness to her refined appearance. A maid, dressed in her uniform, attends to their needs, ensuring their garments are perfectly in place. The setting is that of a grand townhouse, where the air is filled with the anticipation of an exciting night on the town. The elegance and opulence of the era are on full display, as the couple prepares to step out into the evening, ready to mingle with the city's elite. This photograph is a beautiful example of the artistry and craftsmanship that went into creating the fashionable attire of the time. The intricate details of the fur trimmings, the elegant lines of the clothing, and the attention to accessories all contribute to a stunning visual representation of the Edwardian era. The vertical feather in the woman's toque adds a sense of movement and dynamism to the otherwise static image, while the maid, with her watchful gaze, adds a sense of reality and grounding to the scene. This photograph is a captivating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of the wealthy and fashionable people of the early 20th century.
