I don't think this can possibly be from 1931. The fashions are all wrong, the hair is all wrong, and the makeup is all wrong for 1931.

Also Horst P. Horst did not joint the staff of Vogue until 1932.

A Google reverse image search tells me these are "Models in Eta Evening Gowns" from the September 15th, 1948 issue of Vogue, which seems to track. The fashions and the hair (and the lighting and the colors and the camera work) fit 1948 pretty well.

However, the error is understandable, since Vogue magazine itself got this all wrong, labeling this image and several other pages from the same issue as being from 1931 in a recent article here, even though several of the pages they have labeled 1931 are visibly dated September 15, 1948.

It just goes to show that anyone can make an error, even the venerable editors at Vogue. And if something doesn't quite look right, check it out.

Born #OTD, prolific Algerian artist Baya Mahieddine (12 Dec 1931 -9 Nov 1998), whose 1st exhibition in Paris in 1957 (at age 16) caught the eye of the likes of Pablo Picasso and Andre Breton. Both birds and fish show up often in her art!
