  Advertisement about Jenyn's corsets

  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.

  The young model does not appear to be very matronly! Perhaps that is the point of the advertisement. Look younger with a Jenyns corset. Expectations of women have not changed that much over the years!
