EDITORS COMMENTS
A Vision of Elegance: Gertrude Lawrence and the Humber Vogue Saloon by Edward Molyneux In the golden age of automobile design, the collaboration between artists and car manufacturers yielded some of the most stylish and innovative creations of the 20th century. One such partnership was between the British couturier Edward Molyneux and the automobile manufacturer Humber. The result of their union was the Humber Vogue Saloon, a special model that embodied the spirit of sophistication and glamour of the 1930s. Pictured in this advertisement is the captivating actress Gertrude Lawrence, Molyneux's muse and an exclusive wearer of his designs. With her striking features and magnetic presence, Lawrence was the epitome of elegance and style. Her association with Molyneux began in the early 1920s, and their partnership continued until her death in 1952. The Humber Vogue Saloon, designed under Molyneux's expert guidance, was a testament to the power of artistic collaboration in the automobile industry. The car's sleek lines, elegant curves, and refined details reflected the same aesthetic sensibilities that defined Molyneux's fashion designs. The advertisement showcases the car's luxurious interior, featuring supple leather upholstery, polished wood accents, and a dashboard adorned with chrome details. The year was 1933, and the world was in the midst of the Great Depression. Yet, the Humber Vogue Saloon, with its timeless design and unwavering commitment to style and elegance, offered a glimmer of hope and an escape from the harsh realities of the time. This advertisement, featuring the enchanting Gertrude Lawrence, served as a reminder that even in the darkest of times, beauty and grace could still be found. This photograph, a captivating snapshot of a bygone era, stands as a testament to the enduring power of art and design to inspire and captivate, as well as the unique partnership between the worlds of fashion and automobiles.
