EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Facsimiles of Original Water Colour Drawings, designed to Satirise the Fashion in Female Head-Dresses of the Year 1828" takes us back to a time when fashion was both whimsical and extravagant. The artist, Alfred-Edward Chalon, skillfully captures the essence of this era with his satirical portrayal of female head-dresses. In this chromolitho print, we see a group of women wearing towering headpieces adorned with feathers, ribbons, and flowers. Their exaggerated designs seem almost comical as they teeter precariously on their heads. It is clear that Chalon intended to poke fun at these fashionable accessories that were popular during 1828. The image transports us into a world where fashion knows no bounds and creativity reigns supreme. We can almost hear the clattering sound as these elaborate head-dresses pass by on the streets. Yet amidst all the laughter and satire lies an underlying message about societal norms and expectations. Chalon's work reminds us not to take ourselves too seriously and encourages us to embrace our individuality even in matters of style. As we gaze upon this delightful scene from history, let us not forget that fashion has always been a means for self-expression and exploration. This print serves as a charming reminder that trends may come and go but true style is timeless. So let's raise our tea cups in salute to Miss Mac Intire who dared to fall back against conformity and win her own game in matters of fashion!
