EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dated 1910, showcases Anthony Drexel, an Edwardian gentleman, dressed in the height of fashion for a morning engagement. The image reveals Drexel's impeccable sense of style as he dons a morning coat, trousers with a distinctive chalk stripe and a front crease, an all-round collar, a tie, and black and brown half boots. The morning coat, a formal attire for daytime events, adds an air of sophistication and elegance to his appearance. The trousers, with their sharp crease and chalk stripe, accentuate the slim silhouette of the wearer, while the all-round collar and tie complete the polished look. The half boots, a practical yet stylish choice for the era, add a touch of ruggedness to the ensemble. Despite the formal attire, Drexel is seen casually engaging in a morning ritual - smoking a cigarette from a holder. The image captures the essence of the Edwardian era, a time when men of business and high society balanced the demands of their professional lives with the indulgence of personal pleasures. The photograph, a testament to the sartorial sensibilities of the past, offers a glimpse into the world of a bygone era. It invites us to reflect on the evolution of men's fashion and the enduring appeal of classic styles. This image, available through Mary Evans Prints Online, is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of men's fashion, business culture, or the Edwardian era.
