EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking front cover image from The Illustrated London News dates back to 18 July 1922, capturing the elegant and fashionable wedding of Lord Louis Mountbatten and Lady Edwina Ashley at St. Margaret's, Westminster. The newlyweds, both beaming with joy, exit the church with Lady Edwina wearing a stunning silver gown designed by Reville and Rossiter. Her bridal attire was accessorized with a beautiful bouquet of Madonna lilies. Princesses Cecilia and Sophia of Greece, sisters of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, gracefully attended to the bride's train. Lord Mountbatten, who would later become the last Viceroy of India, was escorted by officers of the Renown, the ship in which he had voyaged with the Prince of Wales on his tours. These officers formed an arch of swords under which the bridal procession passed out after the ceremony, adding an air of grandeur to the royal event. The Mountbatten-Ashley wedding was a significant society event, with the newlyweds being part of the British royalty. Their union marked the beginning of a new chapter in their lives, filled with love, commitment, and the promise of a prosperous future. This image from The Illustrated London News offers a glimpse into the fashionable and royal wedding traditions of the early 20th century.
