#2: Easter Shopping, London, 1936

These two girls aren’t just holding Easter eggs — they’re cradling prehistoric chocolate meteorites. It’s hard to tell what’s more amazing: the sheer size of the eggs or the perfectly matching coats and cloche hats.

Judging by the bystanders’ expressions, this was a rare spectacle even in its time. Forget tiny foil-wrapped eggs — Easter in this era was about showing up with confectionery dominance and a side of coordinated fashion flair.
