Frühjahr und Sommer, 1937

1937 · 12 pictures

This is a 1937 Swiss fashion catalogue, Frühjahr und Sommer (spring and summer), issued to show women's coats and suits to buyers and dressmakers. The pictures are blue-toned line illustrations of 1930s women in tailored suits, belted coats and checked jackets, with numbered garment codes beside each figure; a designer could take their shoulder lines, wide lapels, cinched waists and flared hems as period reference.
