EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1914, showcases the contrast between True Chic and False Chic as embodied by a young, elegant woman. Dressed in the latest fashion, she wears a hobble skirt and a long, belted fur-trimmed jacket that creates a striking tunic effect. The skirt, which narrows at the ankles to restrict movement, is paired with a fur muff, adding an air of sophistication and luxury. The woman's outfit is further accessorized with a greyhound collar and lead, as well as a cane, adding a playful and whimsical touch to her ensemble. Her posture is confident and poised, exuding an aura of refinement and grace. In contrast, a false chic figure is shown in the background, wearing an over-the-top, exaggerated outfit that is the antithesis of true chic. The woman's excessive use of feathers, beads, and other embellishments detracts from her natural beauty and elegance. The year 1914 marked a significant shift in women's fashion, with the hobble skirt becoming a popular trend. This photograph captures the essence of true chic, demonstrating how the latest fashion can be worn to good advantage, enhancing the wearer's natural beauty and sophistication.
