EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a moment in time from 1934, showcasing an advertisement for Bear Brand stockings. The image features a young woman engrossed in conversation on a telephone, presumably raving about her new pair of luxurious stockings.
In the midst of the Great Depression, fashion and style were still important to women, as evidenced by this elegant model proudly showing off her hosiery. The Bear Brand stockings were known for their quality and British craftsmanship, making them a sought-after item among fashionable ladies of the era.
The photograph exudes sophistication and glamour, with the model's perfectly styled hair and chic outfit adding to the overall allure. Her legs are prominently displayed, drawing attention to the fine detail and craftsmanship of the stockings she is wearing.
Communication plays a key role in this scene, as the woman appears to be sharing her excitement about her new purchase with someone on the other end of the line. This snapshot offers a glimpse into not only fashion trends of the 1930s but also how women used technology like telephones to connect with others.
Overall, this print serves as both an advertisement for Bear Brand stockings and a window into life during this glamorous yet challenging period in history.
