A Parisian Fashion Come to London: The Tango Tea at Princes Restaurant, 1913 This evocative photograph captures the excitement and novelty of the tango craze that swept through London in 1913. The image, taken at the Princes Restaurant, shows a fashionable couple gracefully executing the passionate and seductive moves of the Argentine tango on the parquet floor of the ballroom. The tango tea, an afternoon dance event, was a popular social phenomenon that brought together the city's elite to experience the latest European dance sensation. The fashionable attire of the couple reflects the elegance and glamour of the occasion. The woman wears a stylish, form-fitting dress with a low-cut neckline, revealing a hint of décolletage, and a flowing skirt that allows her to move freely as she dances. Her hair is styled in an updo, accentuating her refined features and the intricate beading on her headpiece. The man wears a dapper suit and top hat, his expression focused on his partner as he leads her through the complex steps of the dance. The tango tea was more than just a dance event; it was a cultural phenomenon that transcended the boundaries of the ballroom. The tango's sensuality and energy captured the imagination of London's society, and the dance became a symbol of modernity and sophistication. The tango tea at the Princes Restaurant was just one of many such events that took place throughout the city, each one a testament to the enduring allure of the Argentine tango and its ability to captivate and inspire. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the fashion, culture, and social trends of the early 20th century. The tango tea at the Princes Restaurant may be a thing of the past, but the memory of this Parisian fashion import lives on, a reminder of a time when dance floors were the place to be seen and the tango was the dance that everyone wanted to learn.
