Interesting illustration taken from a fashion magazine printed in France in the 20's of the 20th century. Black ink print on paper. The background is simple, with only a mirror, a small table and a cushion correctly distributed to balance the image. It includes a beautiful zigzag patterned wooden frame.

The women's clothes are the perfect example of women's daily fashion trends: bodies without curves were in fashion, so the garments had straight cuts with a languid look and the cuts reached to the lower hip to emphasize this effect. Hair was worn short with aqua waves, influenced by the Garçonne, a style marked by feminized masculine aesthetics.

The designs presented here are inspired by the most relevant designers of the time: Paul Poiret, Gabrielle Chanel, Madame Vionnet, Elsa Schiaparelli, Jeanne Lanvin or Lucien Lelong.
