The Tatler front-cover: The Duchess of Windsor

The Duchess of Windsor, Wallis Simpson, in The Tatler magazine, March 1939. The caption reads: This portrait of the beautiful wife of H.R.H. the Duke of Windsor, with whom she is also seen in a photograph on the succeeding page, has only just been taken. The Duke and Duchess have spent much time recently at their villa at Cap d'Antibes and are moving into their new house in the Avenue Sauchet in Paris very shortly. The Duchess has the well-deserved reputation of being one of the best dressed women in the world. The Duke, as every one knows, is an ardent golfer and is rapidly becoming first class at the game
