EDITORS COMMENTS
This pair of fashion advertisement illustrations, circa 1939, showcases the timeless allure of women's fashion from the 1930s, as depicted in these evocative images from the March of the Women Collection on Mary Evans Prints Online. The illustrations, which feature a young woman in various poses, were created for Wolsey Ltd and Lux, two prominent fashion brands of the era. In the first illustration, the woman lies on her back, her arms extended above her head, her body clad in a chic Wolsey ensemble. The fluid lines and vibrant colors of the illustration evoke a sense of ease and grace, as if inviting the viewer to join her in a moment of relaxation and self-indulgence. In the second illustration, the woman stands to the side, her body angled towards the viewer, her expression confident and poised. She wears a stunning Lux gown, its intricate details and elegant silhouette accentuated by the skilled hand of the illustrator. The woman's posture and demeanor exude an air of sophistication and glamour, making it clear that this is a fashion choice for those who desire to make a statement. These illustrations offer a glimpse into the world of fashion advertising in the 1930s, a time when annual buyers' guides were a crucial resource for retailers and consumers alike. The illustrations, which were likely used to showcase the latest trends and styles, are a testament to the artistry and creativity of the era, as well as the enduring appeal of fashion as a form of self-expression and identity. Whether used as decorative pieces or as inspiration for modern fashion designs, these illustrations continue to captivate and inspire, offering a glimpse into a bygone era of fashion, art, and culture.
