EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the elegant and fashionable world of Ascot Races in 1913, as captured in this stunning photograph. The image showcases a scene filled with grace and sophistication, as a group of ladies don their most fashionable attire for a day at the races. The women, dressed in full-length, hobble skirts, epitomize the pre-war Edwardian fashion trend. Hobble skirts, also known as mermaid skirts, were a popular choice for women during this era, as they created an hourglass silhouette and allowed for freedom of movement. The skirts were often worn with high-waisted corsets and blouses, which were adorned with intricate lace or beading details. The ladies in this photograph exude an air of refinement and elegance, with their black and white dresses adding to the timeless and classic feel of the scene. The black dresses, with their high necklines and long sleeves, are a stark contrast to the white dresses, which feature delicate lace collars and cuffs. The women's hats, adorned with feathers and ribbons, complete their stylish ensembles. This photograph offers a glimpse into the early summer fashion scene of 1913, a time when women's clothing was both fashionable and functional. The ladies at Ascot Races were not only making a fashion statement, but they were also embracing the freedom and independence that came with the new fashion trends of the time. This image is a beautiful reminder of the elegance and sophistication of the Edwardian era and the enduring appeal of classic fashion.
