The image offers a glimpse into the fashionable and opulent bridal style of the 1920s, as well as a peek into the personal history of one of the most beloved and enduring figures of the 20th century. Lady Elizabeth's shoes, a stunning example of the intricate craftsmanship of the time, feature delicate embroidery and elegant beading, adding to the overall grandeur of her bridal ensemble. The T-bar design, a popular choice during the 1920s, provided both comfort and style, making it a practical yet fashionable choice for the bride. The photograph, taken in 1923, captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us back to the glamour and elegance of a royal wedding during the Roaring Twenties. The image is a testament to the timeless beauty and allure of traditional bridal fashion, as well as a reminder of the enduring legacy of Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, who went on to become the mother of the future King George VI and the grandmother of Queen Elizabeth II.
