EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning image from the Mary Evans Picture Library, titled Furs / Grunwaldt / Plate 3, showcases an elegant Edwardian woman adorned in a short grey fur jacket and matching grey mantle. The jacket features gathered sleeves that add a feminine touch, while the black fur epaulettes and trim add a sense of sophistication and grandeur. The mantle, which can be made of either fur or velvet, is also trimmed with black fur and comes with a coordinating muff to keep the wearer warm. The woman's outfit is further accessorized with a vertical aigrette, a feather ornament typically worn on hats, adding a vertical line to elongate the silhouette and draw the eye upwards. The overall look is reminiscent of the early 20th century, specifically the year 1914, when such fur-trimmed garments were popular among the fashionable elite. The fur types used in this costume are unspecified, leaving room for interpretation and imagination. The image invites us to ponder the various types of fur that may have been used, such as sable, mink, or fox, and the ethical considerations of wearing fur during this time period. This historical photograph is a testament to the opulence and extravagance of the Edwardian era, a time when fur was a symbol of wealth and status. The intricate details of the jacket, mantle, and muff, as well as the elegant vertical aigrette, make this image a must-see for anyone interested in fashion history or the history of fur use in clothing.
