EDITORS COMMENTS
This series of sketches by Wilton Williams, titled "Full dress and bathing dress," offers a glimpse into the fashionable world of the modern girl in 1925. The three sketches, which showcase the same subject in both bathing and evening attire, represent a departure from the traditional depictions of undress or underwear commonly found in similar series of the time. The modern girl, with her bobbed hair and fashionable flapper style, embodies the spirit of the Roaring Twenties. Her bobbed hair, a symbol of feminine independence and modernity, is styled in a sleek, short cut that frames her face and accentuates her features. In the first sketch, she is seen wearing a stylish bathing costume, complete with a high-waisted two-piece swimsuit and a sun hat. The second sketch shows her dressed smartly for an evening out with a female friend, wearing a drop-waist dress with intricate beading and a cloche hat. Williams' sketches capture the essence of the modern girl's newfound freedom and self-expression, as well as her embrace of the latest fashion trends. The flapper style, with its emphasis on short hemlines, loose-fitting silhouettes, and bold accessories, represented a rejection of traditional gender roles and a celebration of women's independence and agency. This historical moment in fashion and society is beautifully encapsulated in Williams' sketches, which offer a fascinating glimpse into the world of the modern girl in the 1920s. With their timeless elegance and captivating detail, these sketches continue to inspire and delight fashion enthusiasts and historians alike.
