EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the Edwardian era with this advertisement for Plumes D'Autruches, an ostrich farm that offered an array of fashionable accessories for women in 1912. The image showcases the elegance and allure of ostrich plumes, which were highly sought-after for their unique texture and length. During this period, women's fashion was characterized by intricate details and an emphasis on opulence. Feathers, particularly from ostriches, were a popular choice for creating eye-catching hats, fans, and boas. These accessories added a touch of sophistication and luxury to any outfit. The advertisement, produced by the French ostrich farm, boasts of the high quality of their plumes, which were carefully selected and processed to ensure their beauty and durability. The farm took pride in their breeding methods, which ensured the ostriches produced the longest and most vibrant feathers. The image itself is a visual feast, with the ostrich plumes taking center stage against a backdrop of lush greenery and a clear blue sky. The delicate, feminine hands holding the fan and boa add a sense of grace and refinement, while the ornate, floral border frames the advertisement in a charming and elegant manner. This advertisement is a testament to the enduring appeal of natural beauty and the role it plays in fashion and self-expression. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when ostrich plumes were the epitome of fashionable accessories and a symbol of luxury and sophistication.
