EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph from the roaring twenties, Countess Beatty, the Duchess of Sutherland, and Lady Ednam are seen enjoying the pleasures of life at the Venice Lido. The image, captured in 1924, showcases the high society ladies dressed entirely appropriately in fashionable beach pyjamas. The Duchess of Sutherland, with her striking features and elegant posture, dons a pair of brightly patterned pyjamas in a lightweight fabric, coordinating perfectly with her companion, Lady Ednam. The Countess, wearing a similar ensemble, adds an extra touch of sophistication with her Russian-style boots, which The Sketch magazine noted in its coverage of the event. The Lido, a popular destination for the aristocracy during the 1920s, was the epitome of glamour and luxury. It was de rigueur for women to wear beach negligees or pyjamas, ensuring they remained both fashionable and comfortable while basking in the Italian sun. The ladies' outfits, with their intricate patterns and vibrant colors, exemplify the unique blend of style and practicality that defined the era. This photograph offers a captivating glimpse into the world of high society during the 1920s, a time when fashion, luxury, and leisure were at the forefront of the social scene. The Countess and Lady Ednam, with their chic beach pyjamas, embody the carefree spirit and elegance of the era, making this image a true treasure for fashion enthusiasts and historians alike.
