I thought that while I was at the craft fair this weekend and consequently unable to do a Thursday Thrill, Saturday Shop Talk, and Sunday Snag, I would implement a new weekly post! This post will just be a spot to share one of my quirky loves. Old photographs! Not surprising with my love of romance, nostalgia, and stories!
This first photograph of an enchantingly set outdoor tea with an elegantly dressed woman was found on pinterest and unfortunately there is no credit to the photo and no information. Look at her dress!! That embroidery and her buttoned sleeve detail is gorgeous!
Help me out? What can you gather from the photo? My untrained eyes would guess that it was taken in the early 1920s by the look of her dress and that chair style. What do you think?
I think it looks pre-1920's, but either way its beautiful.

una foto genial, me encantan los looks de los años 20, muy femeninos!!
ReplyDeleteBESOS :D
Such a beautiful photograph. I also thought of the 1920s, but it may be late 1910s, too - I am just looking at her hair....
ReplyDeleteWouldn't be wonderful to know a story behind this shot?!...

What a stunning photo. I think you are right that it's probably from the 1920s or maybe even earlier, in the 1910s.

What a gorgeous photo. The chair looks like a Lloyd Loom (my Grandma had one very similar in her bathroom).
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day and the very best of luck for the craft fair this weekend.

Looks very much like it was taken in the 1920s era. It's funny...My mom used to have a wicker chair like that. =0)

I like the pearls, they are laid across her upper back, instead of hanging by her neck. Unless they are a part of the dress...
ReplyDeleteI love retro pics. And I adore vintage clothing. I am a huge fan!

Amazing picture! I think you are right about 20s, but its really hard to say exactly, because a lot of those time designers 1900-1930ss such as Paul Poiret or Callot Soeurs created garments looking forward much more ahead even then we can imagine and a lot of designers from 1930-untill now comeback to those time in their Haute couture Fashion . But generally silhouette of this dress is from Modernism trend in fashion that came to dominate in 20s and described as clean simple lines and unnecessary adornment (in comparison with previous) This picture is all about the silents movies and Charleston times:) sorry for such long comment:)
ReplyDeleteNo need to apologize! Write as much as you want! I love reading the comments. :-)
DeleteLike a fee. Amazing picture!!!
