EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon, created in 1925, showcases a humorous take on the fashion trend of the time – the Oxford bags. The caricature features actors Peter Haddon and Rosaline Courtneidge in the midst of their performance in the play "On Change" at the Savoy Theatre. Haddon's character is depicted with a vacant expression, encapsulating the youthful spirit of the era. His attire includes the extremely baggy trousers, known as Oxford bags, which had become popular among Oxford University students during the mid-1920s. The Oxford bags, an iconic fashion statement of the 1920s, were characterized by their baggy and voluminous design. This style was a stark contrast to the more tailored and fitted trousers that were popular before the decade. The trend was embraced by young men, who wore them as a symbol of nonconformity and rebellion against traditional fashion norms. In this cartoon, Haddon's exaggerated Oxford bags serve to accentuate the comedic element of the caricature. His character's expression and the title of the play, "On Change," further emphasize the theme of transformation and adaptation to new trends. Courtneidge, on the other hand, is shown in a more conventional outfit, adding to the visual contrast between the two characters. This cartoon offers a glimpse into the fashionable world of the 1920s, showcasing the iconic Oxford bags and the playful spirit of the era. With its intriguing combination of humor and historical significance, this image is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of fashion and the arts during the 1920s.
