Описание: Hey Vintage Fans, Welcome to Vintage Beaty Youtube Channel. We are going back in time with a collection of the most beautiful women of the Edwardian era, colorized and brought to life by A.I.

The 19th century saw some of the most stunning, elegant and some of the most celebrated women in history become icons of their time. With poise, charm and beauty that is still regarded today, these women are considered to be amongst the most beautiful of the Edwardian era.

Named after the fashionable Edward VII, a king who loved sport, parties and his many mistresses, the Edwardian era lasted from 1901 to 1910.

Let's start our video with Lily Elsie (1886-1962).
Best known for her starring role in The Merry Widow in 1907, Lily Elsie was one of the most photographed women of the Edwardian period. Elsie began as a child actress. As she grew older, she managed to build her reputation in a string of successful Edwardian musical comedies.

Marie Doro was an American stage and film actress of the early silent film era. She was first noticed as a chorus-girl by impresario Charles Frohman, who took her to Broadway, where she also worked for William Gillette of Sherlock Holmes fame, her early career being largely moulded by these two much-older mentors. Although generally typecast in lightweight feminine roles, she was in fact notably intelligent, cultivated and witty.



Minnie Brown (1883-?)

On the stage, she appeared mainly in musicals or musical reviews such as The Ziegfeld Follies of 1911.
