    Jenyns Corsets were unique products used for surgical and hygienic purposes. This was one of the oldest fashion lines running in Queensland. Many women were happy wearing it.

    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.
