EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the radiant smile and elegant poise of Miss Angela Dudley-Ward (later Lady Laycock) at the time of her engagement announcement in 1934. Born in 1916 as the younger daughter of the renowned socialite Freda Dudley-Ward, who was once the mistress of King Edward VIII while he was the Prince of Wales, Angela's upbringing was steeped in society's grandest circles. The image exudes the glamour and sophistication of the 1930s, with Angela's chic dress, intricately beaded headpiece, and the delicate pearls adorning her neck. Her expressive eyes and engaging smile convey a sense of excitement and anticipation as she embarks on a new chapter in her life. Angela's engagement to Major-General Sir Robert Laycock, a commando leader, brought her into the esteemed ranks of the military aristocracy. Together, they went on to have two sons and three daughters. This portrait, taken at the height of the 1930s, serves as a captivating reminder of a bygone era, where elegance, beauty, and the allure of high society intertwined. The photograph is a testament to the enduring charm and grace of Miss Angela Dudley-Ward, who would later become Lady Laycock, and the transformative power of love and commitment. This evocative image, captured by the skilled photographers of the Illustrated London News Ltd, is a must-have for any collection of vintage portraits, socialite memorabilia, or 1930s history.
