From Queen Mary of Teck to modern fashionistas, the choker has reigned supreme throughout history. As HM Queen Mary (of Teck) adorned herself with exquisite chokers during her reign as Queen of King George V, she set a trend that would captivate generations to come. In the grandeur of the Coronation of King George V and Queen Mary, all eyes were on the regal couple, but it was Queen Mary's stunning choker that stole the show. The Tatler Autumn Fashion Number 1955 featured this iconic piece, inspiring women around the world to embrace its elegance. Fast forward to August 1962 and The Tatler front cover showcased another breathtaking choker, worn by none other than Lily Elsie. This renowned actress epitomized grace and sophistication in her choice of accessories. But let us not forget historical figures like Abigail Adams and Catherine of Braganza who also embraced this timeless accessory. Their portraits depict them wearing intricate chokers that added an air of refinement to their ensembles. Queen Alexandra's Downey Photograph on a postcard captured her beauty enhanced by a delicate choker adorning her neck. It became an emblematic image for those seeking royal-inspired style. Belinda Willis took center stage in a sepia-toned photo from c. 1905 showcasing a unique tattooed woman wearing an unconventional yet captivating choker necklace - proving that even unconventional styles can make a statement. And finally, Summer 1929 saw an oil-on-canvas masterpiece depicting a woman exuding confidence while donning an exquisite pearl-encrusted choker – symbolizing both opulence and femininity. Through centuries past and present, the allure of the choker remains unwavering; it continues to be cherished as more than just jewelry but as an embodiment of power, elegance, and individuality.
