EDITORS COMMENTS
Miss Dora Dubey: A Vision of the Roaring Twenties in Dolly's Revel's at the Piccadilly Hotel, London, 1924 Miss Dora Dubey, a captivating entertainer of the 1920s, graces this evocative image from Dolly's Revel's at the Piccadilly Hotel in London, 1924. The Bystander magazine commented that she was "one of the earliest styles of summer dresses known to man," marking a daring departure from conventional fashion norms of the time. The era of the 1920s, also known as the Roaring Twenties, was characterized by a cultural shift towards modernity, liberation, and a newfound appreciation for the arts. Nightlife and cabaret scenes flourished, providing a platform for entertainers like Miss Dubey to showcase their talent and challenge societal expectations. In this portrait, Miss Dubey is semi-clothed in a skimpy, yet tastefully revealing costume, embodying the risqué and daring spirit of the twenties. Her figure, accentuated by the figure-hugging fabric, exudes confidence and allure. The dress, with its intricate beading and fringe detailing, is a testament to the craftsmanship and creativity of the time. The Piccadilly Hotel, a popular destination for high society and celebrities, played host to numerous cabaret shows and revues, including Dolly's Revel's, where Miss Dubey captivated audiences with her performances. This photograph serves as a historical reminder of the vibrant and transformative era of the 1920s, a time of artistic expression, liberation, and innovation.
