EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the opulence and elegance of Harrods Shoe Department in 1919, as documented by Bedford Lemere & Co. Located on Brompton Road in Knightsbridge, London, Harrods was known for its luxurious and exclusive shopping experience, and the ladies shoe department was no exception. The ornate plaster ceiling, adorned with intricate designs and gilded accents, reflects the Baroque style that was popular during this era. The lavish use of space, with rows of shoes displayed on elegant shelves and mannequins dressed in fashionable attire, emphasizes the store's commitment to providing a premium shopping experience. Harrods had undergone a major rebuilding and extension between 1901 and 1905, and the shoe department was a testament to the store's grandeur and sophistication. The fire that destroyed much of the original building in 1884 had paved the way for this new, more magnificent version of Harrods. The photograph transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating this luxurious retail space. The fashionable shoes on display, with their intricate designs and high-quality materials, are a reflection of the trends and styles of the time. This image offers a glimpse into the world of retail and fashion history, providing us with a fascinating insight into the past.
