EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Universal Images Group (UIG) showcases a display card featuring an exquisite ladies cycling costume. The ensemble, designed by Gosta Kraemer of New York for the renowned Pope Manufacturing Co, exudes elegance and functionality. The focal point of this enchanting chromolithograph is the accordion-pleated divided skirt that gracefully adorns the cyclist. This innovative design allows freedom of movement while maintaining a sense of style and modesty. Paired with side-buttoning gaiters, this ensemble epitomizes fashion-forward thinking in the early 1900s. The bicycle featured in this picture is equipped with pneumatic tires, highlighting technological advancements in transportation during that era. Manufactured by Columbia Bicycles, known for their exceptional craftsmanship and quality, it symbolizes America's growing interest in cycling as a popular means of transport. This image not only captures a moment in time but also serves as a testament to the ingenuity and creativity prevalent within American clothing manufacturing at that period. It reflects how fashion was adapting to meet the needs and desires of women who were embracing new forms of mobility. With its rich history and attention to detail, this print transports us back to turn-of-the-century New York City where ladies embraced both style and practicality on their bicycles. A true gem from UIG's collection!
