EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant scenes in Margate during a scorching heatwave in the summer of 1957. The beach fashion of that era is on full display, with straw hats adorning the heads of stylish women and necklaces and earrings adding a touch of glamour to their outfits. In the foreground, we see two young friends enjoying a day at Margate's sandy shores. Anne Dear, a 16-year-old copy-typist from London, exudes confidence as she poses for the camera alongside her companion Eileen May, a 17-year-old shorthand typist from Grove Park. The image transports us back to an era when youth reveled in carefree days by the coast. The sun shines brightly overhead as these teenagers soak up its rays while engaging in lively conversations and laughter. Their radiant smiles reflect both their enjoyment of each other's company and their excitement for this much-needed respite from city life. Margate's popularity as a seaside destination is evident through this snapshot - it was undoubtedly THE place to be during that memorable summer season. This photograph serves as a nostalgic reminder of simpler times when summers were filled with endless sunshine, warm weather, and unforgettable moments shared among friends along Britain's picturesque coastline. Peter Powell skillfully captured this slice of history through his lens, immortalizing not just the fashion trends but also the spirit and joyfulness that defined those halcyon days by the sea.
