    Another "girl next door" image, or at least how I would expect one to look.

    She was an extraordinarily brave and resourceful woman. She encountered the murderous Kinneff brothers. That encounter is recorded in Mike Munro's book The Last Bushrangers.

    Advertisement about Jenyn's corsets
  • Shu Wei Chin said:
    It is so incredibly interesting to see the transition in fashion from this advertisement dated 1912. From my perspective, I can see the classic silhouette desired in the Edwardian era (the S curve and soft sloping shoulders), but I also see that the hairstyle resembles the gorgeously curled and crimped short crop popular in the 1920s.

    You can see how the silhouette from the Edwardian era to the silhouette of the 1920s.
