EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic figure of Bunny Roger, the English couturier, war hero, and dandy, in an Edwardian-inspired outfit from 1951. Bunny Roger, born Neil Munro on June 9, 1911, in London, was a man of many facets. He gained fame as a leading couturier, known for his innovative designs and impeccable tailoring. However, his life was not limited to the world of fashion. Roger served in the British Army during World War II and was decorated for his bravery. In this portrait, Roger exudes an air of elegant eccentricity. He wears a long jacket with a high, four-button front, a white Marcella waistcoat with a step collar, and narrow, drainpipe trousers. The jacket's tailored lines and the waistcoat's intricate texture add to the overall effect of refined sophistication. Roger's outfit is completed with a curly brimmed bowler hat and a high, stiff collar, both hallmarks of Edwardian style. Bunny Roger's dandyish appearance was not just a fashion statement. It was an expression of his unique personality and his commitment to living life with style and panache. His love for fashion and his military background made him a fascinating figure in London society during the mid-20th century. This photograph is a testament to his enduring legacy as a man who embodied elegance, eccentricity, and an unwavering commitment to personal expression.
