EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1927, showcases the enchanting Andrea Majinski, a model of extraordinary beauty and grace, adorned with the intricately platted Coronal hairstyle, a fashion sensation of the time. The hairstyle, inspired by the Russian Coronal, or diadem, was a popular choice among the avant-garde circles of the 1920s. Andrea's hairstyle, created by the renowned sculptor Jacob Epstein, is a stunning display of artistry and innovation. The Coronal hairstyle features a series of plats, or braids, that are meticulously arranged in a circular pattern around the head, resembling a crown. The hairstyle is further accentuated by the addition of elegant earrings and rings, adding an air of sophistication and allure. Jacob Epstein, a British sculptor of Hungarian descent, was known for his modernist and often controversial works. His collaboration with Andrea Majinski on this hairstyle demonstrates his versatility as an artist and his ability to blend art and fashion. The Coronal hairstyle was a daring and bold choice for the time, reflecting the spirit of the Roaring Twenties and the desire for experimentation and self-expression. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer for the Illustrated London News Ltd, captures the essence of this iconic hairstyle and the captivating beauty of Andrea Majinski.
