EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the early 1900s and experience the elegance and sophistication of the Edwardian era with this advertisement for John Barker & Co's new range of Royal Worcester corsets. The image showcases a woman in full regalia, her figure gracefully accentuated by the intricately designed corset. With a waist that narrows to an enviable silhouette and hips that are elongated, these corsets were the epitome of fashionable waist training. The corset, a staple undergarment of the time, is adorned with delicate lace and intricate lacing, adding an element of refinement and femininity. The corsetier expertly pulls the garment, shaping the woman's figure to perfection. Suspenders attached to the corset suggest the possibility of wearing stockings underneath, completing the look of the undergarment ensemble. The Royal Worcester corsets were a testament to the craftsmanship and innovation of the time, with their use of boning to provide structure and support. The corsets were a symbol of status and wealth, and the fact that they were produced by John Barker & Co, a renowned corset specialist, further added to their allure. This advertisement transports us back to a bygone era, where fashion and elegance were synonymous with the perfect hourglass figure. The image is a beautiful reminder of the intricacies and details that went into creating the undergarments of the past, and the enduring allure of the corset as a symbol of femininity and beauty.
