This backview photograph, taken in 1913, showcases a group of fashionable French women adorned in elegant racecourse attire at Longchamp Racecourse. The women's ensembles reflect the grace and sophistication of the Edwardian era, just before the onset of World War I. In the foreground, a woman in a flowing, ankle-length dress with a high waistline and a fitted bodice, wears a hat with a wide brim and a decorative band adorned with feathers. She accessorizes her outfit with a long sash tied around her waist and carries a parasol. The next woman in the group wears a similar hat, but her dress is shorter and features a full skirt and a fitted bodice. She also dons a jacket with a fur collar and long sleeves, adding an extra layer of warmth and style. The third woman in the photograph wears a shorter jacket with a fitted waist and long sleeves, paired with a full skirt and a hat with a large, feathered plume. Her outfit exudes a sense of practicality and elegance, perfect for a day at the races. The final woman in the group wears a long, flowing coat with a belted waist and a wide-brimmed hat with a delicate ribbon. Her outfit is both stylish and functional, providing protection from the sun and the elements. Together, these women embody the fashionable spirit of the era, showcasing the timeless allure of racecourse attire and the enduring appeal of elegant, feminine garments.
