Sommer-saison, 1912, saison d'été

1912 · 16 pictures

This is a 1912 Swiss fashion catalogue of summer-season women's coats and suits, published for buyers and dressmakers. The plates show full-length coats, tailored suits and wide-brimmed or feathered hats drawn in fine line engraving with numbered garment labels. A designer could draw on the long, close-fitting silhouettes, the wide lapels and the dense plumed millinery of the Edwardian era.
