"My Fair Lady" is set in Edwardian London, sometime between 1901 and 1910, which is the period covering the reign of King Edward VII.

The costumes in the 1964 movie version of "My Fair Lady," such as the peach colored outfit Eliza wears after the ball, when she meets her father on the way to his wedding, and the type of automobiles seen indicate the year 1912. This would be the time just before the start of World War I, during the reign of King George V - just after the end of the Edwardian era.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

Do you mean My Fair Lady. This was a play in five acts written by George Bernard Shaw entitled Pygmalion, dated 1912
