EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the elegance and charm of Edwardian fashion as seen in a woman dressed in a dainty frock, perfect for the regattas of 1909. The woman wears a high-necked poplin linen dress, the fabric's subtle texture adding to the dress's delicate appearance. The dress is trimmed with intricate appliques of linen, outlining a guimpe of tucked muslin. The outfit is completed with a large-brimmed hat, adorned with a scarf of Ninon fabric and the palest poppies, adding a touch of femininity and playfulness to the ensemble. The woman's expression exudes a sense of joy and excitement, perhaps in anticipation of the regatta or punting on the river. The backdrop of boats and the water adds to the scene's serene and idyllic atmosphere. The hat, with its wide brim and decorative trim, shields her from the sun, while the pinafore-style underskirt of the dress allows for ease of movement as she navigates the boat. The Edwardian era, with its emphasis on high collars, intricate trims, and feminine silhouettes, is beautifully represented in this photograph. The woman's outfit is a testament to the attention to detail and craftsmanship that went into creating fashionable clothing during this time. This image is a captivating reminder of the elegance and charm of the past, making it a must-have for any collection of historical fashion or Edwardian-era photography.
