“The Edwardian motoring lady had no reason to complain of the fashions expressly designed for her wearing. Early motoring coats bore a striking resemblance to that worn by a hard-working machinist. There was no thought of beauty or style in its designing, but in the early 1900s, the fashions for motoring were at once practical and fascinating; useful and fetching. Motoring clothing constituted in themselves a whole wardrobe, and not a very small one at that”
