EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the elegance of yesteryear with this stunning advertisement for an International Fur Store's theatre coat from 1913. The image showcases a graceful woman wearing a fur-trimmed white evening coat or wrap, complete with a white fur stole, long gloves, and an elegant fan. The coat, with its narrowing hobble skirt, exudes the feminine charm of the Edwardian era. The model's head is adorned with a decorative band and a headdress, adding an extra touch of glamour to the ensemble. The advertisement, published by the Illustrated London News Ltd, transports us back in time to an era of opulence and sophistication. The white fur, a symbol of luxury and wealth, was a must-have accessory for women during this period. The long gloves not only protected against the cold but also added an air of mystery and allure. The fan, a popular prop in theatre performances, was both functional and decorative. The intricate detailing of the coat and the stole, with their delicate fur trimmings, are a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the time. The narrowing design of the coat accentuates the woman's figure, highlighting the hourglass shape that was in vogue during the early 1900s. The kimono-inspired sleeves and the long, flowing train add to the overall grandeur of the outfit. This advertisement is not only a visual treat but also a historical document that captures the essence of fashion during the Edwardian era. The image invites us to imagine the world of theatre and high society, where elegance and style reigned supreme.
