This vintage picture shows the common styles of women in the early 1900's. This woman is wearing a stylish hat with a large peacock sized feather that was all the rage for the turn of the century and she is carrying a real alligator purse. This photo may have been taken in the late 1800's. She is a relative of mine and this picture is from my archives of pics handed down from my grandmother. Her skirt is floor-length and the top half is rather business-like by our standards today with a matching jacket. Her hands are covered by gloves. Her hair is pulled up into a rather poofy looking hairdo but then covered by that hat. She was quite fashionable for her time. People always looked so serious back then.
