Description: | c1900s.
Studio portrait of an young Edwardian lady of West Ardsley. She is wearing a hat with a wide brim, lavishly decorated with ribbon or tulle and floral motifs. From 1911 hats were smaller in design than this but large hats were still generally being worn for special occasions. Her coat is dark and the sleeves are made with fullness and gathering at the shoulders - by 1914 coats with puffed sleeves were no longer fashionable. The lady is also wearing a gingham blouse with a white lace yoke and high, lace-trimmed neck-line. She has a brooch pinned at her throat. The photograph possibly dates from around 1910. It is part of the David Atkinson Archive. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Edwardian | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
