EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the vibrant world of dance crazes that swept through ballrooms in 1912, as captured in this intriguing photograph from The Tatler magazine. The image showcases four popular dances that were threatening to disrupt the decorum of the time: the Grizzly Bear, the Bunny Hug, the Turkey Trot, and the Tango. The Grizzly Bear dance, named for its playful and rough nature, involved dancers mimicking the movements of the bear, including growling and grunting. The Bunny Hug, on the other hand, was a more romantic dance where partners held each other close, as if embracing a rabbit. The Turkey Trot, a lively and energetic dance, got its name from the dancers' exaggerated steps that resembled a turkey's waddle. Lastly, the Tango, an exotic and passionate dance, originated in Argentina and was known for its sensual hip movements and close embrace. As the photograph reveals, these dances were a far cry from the traditional ballroom dances of the time. The Tatler, a prominent society magazine, expressed its bemusement towards these new crazes, yet they continued to gain popularity and spread across the social scene. The image serves as a fascinating glimpse into the evolving world of dance and entertainment during the early 20th century.
