EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image from the Edwardian era, a stylish woman dons a straight cut frock of ribbon tussore, making a bold statement at the Goodwood races in 1909. The frock, made from the exotic and luxurious fabric of ribbon tussore, is a long and full-length dress that flatters her figure with its straight cut design. The ribbon material, intricately braided and shimmering in the sunlight, adds an air of elegance and sophistication to her outfit. To complete her race day ensemble, she accessorizes with a large straw hat adorned with ostrich plumes, adding a playful and whimsical touch to her look. The hat, with its wide brim and tall plumes, not only protects her from the sun but also adds an element of glamour and style. The woman's sleeves are also adorned with ribbon detailing, adding a cohesive and polished look to her outfit. The Edwardian era was known for its love of extravagant hats and elaborate fashion, and this woman's outfit is no exception. The use of natural materials such as straw and ostrich plumes adds a organic and earthy element to her outfit, making it both timeless and trendy. The Goodwood races were a popular social event during this era, and this woman's outfit is a testament to the fashionable and stylish attire that was worn during this time. Overall, this photograph is a beautiful representation of the fashion and elegance of the Edwardian era, and a reminder of the timeless allure of ribbon tussore and natural materials in fashion.
