This is the mugshot of Fay Watson, March 1928 – Fined £10 for cocaine possession. It's just one of a huge archive of mugshots of ladies that had been arrested in Sydney during the roaring twenties. More of which I"ve linked to below.
In the roaring 1920s, Sydney’s criminal underbelly was dominated by a unique breed of lawbreakers: women who were as notorious for their fashion sense as they were for their criminal activities. These convicted women, involved in crimes ranging from theft and possession to prostitution, turned heads not only with their audacious acts but also with their impeccable style.
Thanks to the \~NSW Police Forensic Archive\~ https://www.utterlyinteresting.com/post/the-fantastic-fashion-worn-by-sydney-s-criminal-ladies , we can still admire these adventurous broads today through a collection of remarkable forensic photos that capture their criminal glamour.
