This enchanting illustrated advertisement, hailing from circa 1916, showcases the elegance and sophistication of the D. H. Evans & Co. Ltd's Grafton cotton voile. The image captures a graceful female model, dressed in a pink robe suit that embodies the height of fashion during this era. The full skirt, made of the lightweight and breathable Grafton cotton voile, cascades around her, creating an ethereal and flowing effect. The bodice of the suit is adorned with silk buttons and a silk waistband, adding an element of refinement and luxury. The model's collar, made of white lawn fabric, is delicately edged with lace, adding a touch of femininity and dainty charm to the ensemble. The overall color palette of pink and white exudes a sense of romance and delicacy, making this advertisement a true visual treat. This advertisement was published in a popular women's magazine, likely in the June issue, with the volume number 290 and page number 322. The location of the photograph is listed as Oxford St, London. The image captures the essence of the time, with its intricate details and attention to fashion, providing a glimpse into the world of high-end fashion during the early 20th century. The advertisement serves as a reminder of the beauty and elegance of this bygone era, and the enduring appeal of classic fashion.
