1. Title: "A Vision of Eastern Elegance: The 1911 Silhouette Gose 2 - A Kabuki-Inspired Evening Mantle" 2.. This photograph, sourced from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, presents an exquisite example of women's fashion from the early 20th century. The image showcases the 1911 Silhouette Gose 2, a stunning kimono-style evening mantle inspired by Japanese Kabuki costumes. The Silhouette Gose 2, a direct descendant of the Directoire and Empire line styles, boasts a cocoon silhouette that was popular during this era. The mantle's design is characterized by its flowing, sinuous lines, which accentuate the feminine form and create an ethereal, almost otherworldly appearance. The mantle's embroidery is a testament to the intricate craftsmanship and artistic vision of the time. The delicate, Eastern-style motifs adorning the garment are reminiscent of traditional Japanese roses and other floral designs often found in Kabuki theatre costumes. The embroidery work is meticulous and exquisite, adding an air of sophistication and allure to the mantle. The Silhouette Gose 2 was designed to evoke the mystique and intrigue of the East, with its kimono-inspired design and exotic embroidery. The mantle's evocative scent of history and tradition transports us back to a bygone era, where fashion was an art form and a means of self-expression. This photograph is not only a visual feast for the eyes but also a window into the rich and complex history of women's fashion during the Edwardian period. The 1911 Silhouette Gose 2 is a testament to the enduring influence of Eastern culture on Western fashion and the power of artisanal craftsmanship to captivate and inspire.
