EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in June 1909, showcases the elegance and sophistication of fashion during the Edwardian era at the prestigious Royal Ascot horse race. The woman in the image, adorned in an exquisite dress, embodies the height of fashionable attire for the event. Her dress, featuring a fitted bodice and voluminous skirt, is accentuated by a delicate floral pattern that adds a touch of femininity and charm. The summer season is reflected in the light, airy fabric, which allows for ease and comfort in the warm weather. The woman's hat, a crucial accessory for the race, is a masterpiece in its own right. The wide-brimmed design is adorned with an extravagant array of feathers and plumes, adding a playful and whimsical touch to her outfit. A veil, delicately draped over her face, adds an air of mystery and allure. The woman's expression is one of refined grace and poise, as she prepares to take in the excitement of the Royal Ascot race. The horse and jockeys in the background add a sense of energy and movement to the scene, highlighting the lively atmosphere of the event. This photograph is a stunning representation of the fashionable costumes worn by women during the Edwardian era, and serves as a reminder of the rich history and tradition of the Royal Ascot horse race.
