Burberrys Fashions Outfit Outfits Sketches Stylish Tatler
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1916 as we explore the fashionable world of Eve, the beloved gossip columnist from Tatler magazine. Drawn by the talented Annie Fish, Eve's witty and scandalous musings captured the imagination of the British public, extending beyond the pages of the magazine. The fictional character was even brought to life on stage in the revue, Tina, at the Adelphi Theatre, where Phyllis Dare impersonated Eve in a series of sketches. The outfits Eve was depicted wearing in the Tatler sketches and on stage had a profound impact on the fashion scene of the time. The styles showcased here typify the trends of the era, with shorter, very full skirts, high waists, A-line coats, and high collars. One particularly striking outfit on this double page spread is the check sports suit on the right, which hails from Burberry's. The suit, with its classic check pattern and tailored fit, epitomizes the androgynous yet feminine style that was popular during the war years. As the influence of Eve and the Tatler sketches spread, these fashions could be seen gracing the streets of London and in the windows of department stores. The impact of this cultural phenomenon is evident in the timeless elegance and sophistication of these outfits, which continue to inspire fashion lovers to this day.
