uwmspeccoll: Fashion FridayThis week we review pre-war French fashions (pre-WWI, that is) from 1910 to 1915. These hand-painted pochoir plates are from the anonymous, 2-volume set of hand-colored plates, La Mode Feminine, published in Paris by Editions Nilsson in 1920. As we mentioned in a previous post, our plates have been marred by perforated ownership markings from one of our predecessor institutions, the Wisconsin State Teachers College Library. The set presents women’s fashion design in France from 1795 to 1920 divided into separate fascicules of 20 plates each. We’re hoping that some of these fashions make a comeback!View other plates from La Mode Feminine. View our other Fashion Friday posts. -- source link
