It's my birth month, so as a fashion history treat, here's the cover of a 1928 wholesale catalog from I. Arbus & Sons, New York, who I think were connected to the famous photographer Diane Arbus, who would have been five years old when this catalogue came out.

The catalog is 24 pages, sepia-toned black-and-white, of various styles of dresses fashionable in summer 1928, 14 by 21 cm (5.5 x 8 inches). Many of the fashion illustrations appear to be photographs, but the dresses the models are wearing are either painted on or very heavily retouched. There are a few purely painted illustrations.

I'm going to see about loading up more pages this month. Meanwhile, here's a start.

The problem with trying to dress and decorate your house in a 1920s style is everyone assumes you mean art deco.

It's a very cool feeling to finally have a character you've written over 110k words about, be able look back at you from the canvas.
