Description | Eve of The Tatler in the revue, Tina at the Adelphi, WW1 |
Details |
Actresses, including Phyllis Dare, playing Eve, the fictional lead columnist, drawn by Annie Fish for The Tatler magazine, whose stylish and stylised costumes were recreated (quite brilliantly I should say) for real in a sketch devoted to the character, as part of a revue, "Tina" at the Adelphi Theatre in 1916. Both The Sketch and The Tatler magazines reported (sometimes with sketches) that the costumes had inspired real-life spring fashions. Paul Rubens composed the music for Eve's number. Tatler wrote, 'we are proud that our little creation should have been materialised in such a brilliant fashion. None of our readers should miss seeing this delightful number.'
