EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we are transported back to the post-war era in London. The Butlins Building, located at 439 Oxford Street, has just been inaugurated as the headquarters of the Holiday Camp Movement. Standing proudly in front of this iconic building are three elegant women - Lesley Osmond, Giselle Morlaix, and Joy Millan. Dressed impeccably for the occasion, these ladies exude sophistication and style. Their fashionable hats add a touch of glamour to their ensemble while their fur coats provide warmth during the chilly February weather. It is evident that even amidst the aftermath of war, fashion continues to play an important role in society. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the famous Ribbentrop Table from the old German Embassy. This table holds historical significance as it once belonged to Joachim von Ribbentrop, Germany's Foreign Minister during World War II. Its presence at this celebratory party symbolizes a turning point towards peace and unity after years of conflict. This photograph captures not only a momentous event but also reflects on how society was rebuilding itself after such tumultuous times. It serves as a reminder that even in challenging circumstances, people find ways to come together and celebrate new beginnings.
