Frühjahr & Sommer, 1921

1921 · 1 picture

A 1921 Swiss fashion catalogue, Frühjahr & Sommer, meaning spring and summer, presenting women's coats and suits for the season. The picture is a close, cropped view of a woman in a tan gingham check coat with a loose belted or buttoned front and a wide collar, drawn in soft, broken crayon-like strokes on cream paper; a designer might borrow its check pattern rendered as loose, textured lines and its tonal two-colour palette.
