EDITORS COMMENTS
"Step into the elegant world of a debutante's first season in 1958 as depicted in this double-page spread from The Tatler. On the left, as the mornings in town grow chilly, The Tatler recommends an Estrava mohair suit in the enchanting hue of hyacinth blue. This suit, both stylish and warm, is the perfect addition to a debutante's wardrobe for the early days of the season. Moving on to more formal occasions, for an important lunch or a chilly day at Lords, Henley Week, or Ascot, The Tatler suggests a grey worsted coat worn over a pale blue wild silk dress from Harrods. The dress, paired with a cap adorned with straw flowers by Vernier, adds an air of sophistication and charm. Lastly, for garden parties and outdoor occasions, a Julian Rose dress of printed cotton satin takes center stage. This beautiful dress, designed by Julian Rose and available at Clarida, is the epitome of 1950s fashion. The hat, also by Clarida, completes the look, adding a touch of elegance and class to any debutante's outfit." This photograph, a glimpse into the fashionable world of a debutante's first season in 1958, showcases the timeless beauty and elegance of the era. The outfits, featuring designs from Clarida, Vernier, and Julian Rose, embody the upper class sophistication and style of the time. Whether it's a morning in town, a formal lunch, or a garden party, this double-page spread from The Tatler offers a wealth of inspiration for any fashion enthusiast.
