C1916 Diner Dinner Flared Flirtatious Gowns Latest Parisian Robes Skirts Typical Waists
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the early years of the 20th century, showcases two young women in the latest Parisian dinner gowns of the World War One period. The girls exude an air of flirtatious playfulness as they model the elegant robes de diner, each adorned with high waists and full, flared skirts that were typical of the era. The World War One period, also known as the Belle Époque or the Roaring Twenties, was a time of great social change and cultural innovation. Despite the turmoil and hardships brought about by the war, people continued to find joy and pleasure in their daily lives, and fashion was no exception. Paris, the fashion capital of the world, was at the forefront of this trend, with designers creating beautiful and intricately detailed gowns that were both stylish and comfortable. The high waistline, which had been popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, continued to be a staple of women's fashion during this period. The full, flared skirts, on the other hand, were a new addition, providing a sense of freedom and movement that was both modern and feminine. The gowns were often made of luxurious fabrics such as silk or velvet, and were adorned with beads, sequins, and other embellishments that added to their allure. This photograph, taken around 1916, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of elegance and glamour. The two flirtatious girls, with their confident smiles and stylish attire, embody the spirit of the era, reminding us of the power of fashion to evoke memories and inspire dreams.
