Classic French Fashions of the Twenties (Dover Fashion and Costumes)

This book is a beautiful full color reprint of the 1929 catalog of the Atelier Bachwitz company. The images are lovely art decor depictions of women's dress from day to evening wear. There is a short introduction, but little other text. There are no images of undergarments, shoes or accessories beyond what is depicted in the lovely full color illustrations. A great resource for images, but not for historical context or details of undergarments or dress accessories. I'd purchase it to go along with other resources on 1920s costume.

Beautifully illustrated in color. Many different styles and poses. A wonderful look back in time.

Charming, interesting, lots of details for dressmaker types .... like me.

Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!

Exquisite color sketches of French fashion in the 20's. Delicate in color and lines and well worth the money!

I have a deep love for the fashions of 1915-1940's ,and this is just a wonderful little book for people like me.

Beautiful book, great resource material for classic 20's fashions

Contenu très intéressant pour les adeptes de la mode des années 1920.

Wie man es von der Dover Reihe kennt: unglaublich viele Bilder, für Schneider die detailgetreu arbeiten wollen perfekt als Formstudie und Hilfe zur Schnitterstellung.

Not really what I was looking for - thought there was going to be a bit of info on the designs - it is literally just a slim book with a few twenties illustrations in.
