EDITORS COMMENTS
A Vision of Verdant Grandeur: Miss L Keen's Triumphant Debut as the Fancy Dress Queen of the Vegetable Kingdom, Hemel Hempstead, 1910 In an extraordinary display of creativity and horticultural panache, Miss L Keen of Hemel Hempstead dazzled the crowds at the skating carnival in February 1910, claiming the coveted second prize for her extraordinary vegetable and flower-inspired fancy dress outfit. This image transports us back to an Edwardian era where innovation and imagination reigned supreme. Miss Keen's magnificent costume was a testament to the bountiful harvest of Carter's famous seeds, with each intricately designed element representing a diverse array of vegetables and flowers. The ensemble featured an exquisite cornucopia of produce, from the regal cauliflower crown gracing her head to the radiant sunflowers adorning her sleeves. The vibrant petals of marigolds, the lush foliage of cabbages, and the resplendent blooms of roses were all meticulously recreated, adding to the overall enchantment of the outfit. The seeds themselves played a pivotal role in the creation of this extraordinary ensemble. Packet after packet of Carter's seeds were painstakingly incorporated into the design, serving as both a tribute to the company's reputation for providing the finest gardening essentials and a symbol of the transformative power of nature. As Miss Keen gracefully glided across the ice, her ethereal presence captivated the audience, leaving them in awe of her inventiveness and dedication to the art of fancy dress. This enchanting photograph serves as a reminder of a bygone era, where the simple joys of nature and the power of imagination could captivate the hearts and minds of an entire community.
