EDITORS COMMENTS
In this elegant photograph from the 1930s, two prominent figures of British high society are captured at the fashionable Le Touquet golf club in France. Mrs Wrenn Dupont, formerly known as Miss Margaret Whigham, is pictured on the left, dressed in her golfing attire with a stylish hat and a neatly pressed blouse and skirt. Her golf club is poised in her hand, ready for a swing. Mrs Charles Sweeny, later known as the Duchess of Argyll, is seen on the right, looking chic and refined in a non-playing dress. Her outfit consists of a flattering dress with a belted waist and a fashionable hat adorned with a large bow. Both women exude an air of sophistication and grace, reflecting the glamour and elegance of the 1930s. The location of the photograph, Le Touquet golf club, was a popular destination for the British aristocracy and high society during this period. The club, with its beautiful greens and picturesque surroundings, was known for its exclusivity and high standards. The photograph captures a moment of leisure and relaxation for these two women, who were known for their social status and fashion sense. The two women in the photograph, Mrs Wrenn Dupont and Mrs Charles Sweeny, had interesting lives outside of the golf course. Mrs Wrenn Dupont was a prominent socialite and philanthropist, known for her beauty and her extensive social connections. Mrs Charles Sweeny, later the Duchess of Argyll, was a former actress who married the Duke of Argyll in 1938. Her marriage was famously scandalous and ended in divorce in 1951, following allegations of adultery and violence. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the lives of two prominent women of the 1930s, capturing their elegance, style, and the exclusivity of the Le Touquet golf club. It is a reminder of a bygone era, when fashion, leisure, and social status were intertwined, and high society was defined by its elegance and refinement.
