EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of traditional women's attire from the Lake Como region of Lombardy, Italy, specifically from the village of Esino Lario near Varenna. Dated circa 1909, the image showcases the timeless beauty and intricacy of the local costumes. The women in the photograph are dressed in their traditional outfits, which consist of long, woven dresses adorned with elaborate floral patterns and intricate embroidery. The dresses are worn with high-waisted belts, which cinch the waist and accentuate the hourglass figure. Over the dresses, the women wear long, flowing aprons, also adorned with intricate patterns and embroidery. Accessories such as backpacks and baskets are an essential part of the traditional outfit. The backpacks, made of sturdy materials, were used to carry essentials such as food, firewood, and other supplies. The baskets, woven from local reeds, were used for gathering fruits, vegetables, and other produce from the surrounding countryside. The traditional costumes of the Lake Como region have their roots in the area's rich history and cultural heritage. The intricate patterns and designs reflect the region's connection to nature and the lake. The costumes were also a symbol of status and wealth, as the more intricate and elaborate the embroidery, the higher the social standing of the wearer. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering a window into the lives of the women of Esino Lario and the Lake Como region during the early 1900s. The traditional costumes, with their intricate designs and timeless beauty, continue to be a source of pride and inspiration for the people of the region and visitors alike.
