EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the year 1910, showcases R.V. Vasser-Smith, an English gentleman, impeccably dressed in the height of Edwardian businesswear. The image encapsulates the elegance and sophistication of the era, with Vasser-Smith donning a morning coat and waistcoat, both adorned with intricate braid trim. The grey striped trousers, featuring a sharp front crease, add a touch of formality to the ensemble. The all-round collar of his blue striped shirt complements the waistcoat and coat, while the contrasting black and brown town boots complete the look. The image captures a moment of quiet reflection, with Vasser-Smith's hand resting in his pocket, adding an air of calm confidence. This historical photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing insight into the fashion and style of the early 20th century. The Edwardian businessman's attire was a symbol of wealth, status, and success, and Vasser-Smith's impeccable outfit reflects this. Whether he was a banker, businessman, or gentleman of leisure, his clothing spoke volumes about his position in society. The photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of historical fashion and the importance of preserving images from the past. It invites us to explore the history of men's fashion and the evolution of businesswear, while also serving as a reminder of the elegance and refinement that once defined the Edwardian era.
