Early 20th Century Fashion in London

1906

Captured mid-stride on a sunlit pavement, this elegant lady embodies the Edwardian grace of the early 1900s. With her high-collared blouse, full skirt and elaborate hat adorned with flowers, she reflects a time when modesty met sophistication in everyday attire.

Note the polished shoes, buttoned for practicality yet shaped with subtle flair—no detail overlooked in an era when one's appearance was both a personal statement and a social signal.

Behind her, the signage advertises repairs and soles for “3/6”—a nod to a time when cobblers and craftsmen shaped the heartbeat of the high street.

🚶‍♀️ A fleeting moment of Edwardian London, now eternal on Oldpik.com, where history walks beside us.
