EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Zola Day, we are transported back to the vibrant Easter parade in Rotten Row, Hyde Park, London on the 21st of April 1957. The image showcases a group of Pearly Queens adorned in their exquisite traditional attire. These remarkable women proudly display their intricate button-covered clothing and feathered accessories, embodying the essence of a bygone era. The Pearly Queens were an iconic symbol of inner boroughs in London during the mid-20th century. Their distinctive outfits were meticulously crafted with countless buttons sewn onto every inch of fabric, representing both their dedication to charity work and their deep-rooted community spirit. As they join the Easter parade procession through Hyde Park's historic Rotten Row, these Pearly Queens radiate elegance and grace. This annual event not only celebrated religious traditions but also served as a platform for showcasing cultural heritage and fostering unity among diverse communities. Zola Day's photograph encapsulates a moment frozen in time when tradition met modernity. It reminds us of the importance of preserving our rich history while embracing change. As we gaze upon this image from Memory Lane Prints, we cannot help but be captivated by the resilience and beauty that these Pearly Queens brought to London's streets over six decades ago.
