EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the elegant and fashionable year of 1911, as depicted in this silhouette print. The silhouette of a graceful woman is framed against a soft, pastel background, her figure accentuated by the distinctive fashion trends of the era. Atop her head sits a large, brimmed hat, its wide rim casting an expansive shadow that adds to the dramatic effect. The hat's intricate design is adorned with ribbons and flowers, reflecting the playful and merry spirit of the time. Below, the woman wears a high-waisted Empire line gown, its clean lines and fitted bodice accentuating her slender figure. The gown features an over-skirt or tunic, adding an extra layer of volume and fullness to the ensemble. A long train trails behind her, sweeping the ground as she moves. Accessories of the time are also prominently featured, including tassels that dangle from her hat and a fur muff and stole wrapped around her arms. The muff, a must-have for keeping warm in the chilly weather, is adorned with intricate beadwork and fringe, while the stole, made of luxurious fur, adds a touch of glamour and sophistication. The woman's silhouette is reminiscent of the styles popular during the Edwardian and Directoire periods, with their emphasis on grandeur and elegance. This print is a beautiful reminder of the fashionable trends of 1911, a time of merry widows, flapper dresses, and a newfound appreciation for the feminine form.
