1920199741920. Vernacular fashion illustration archive circa 1920s-1950s documents the evolution of women's dress and stylistic ideals across early and mid-twentieth-century design with emphasis on silhouette material and aspirational presentation. The drawings capture shifts from the elongated androgynous forms associated with 1920s and 1930s fashion to the structured tailoring and fitted garments of the postwar period. Elements such as exaggerated shoulders cinched waists and coordinated ensembles situate the works within broader developments in women's fashion including the influence of tailored suits and formal eveningwear. The illustrations also record accessory culture including gloves hats and jewelry positioning dress within a larger system of social signaling and presentation tied to class gender norms and modern consumer identity.<br /> <br /> United States and possibly Europe circa 1920s-1950s. Archive of six original gouache and pencil fashion illustrations on hard mat boards and one on thick watercolor paper each measuring approximately 10 x 7 to 10 x 15 inches. Several works bear artist signatures or initials including examples signed "Virginia" and "G. Wichner." Two dated compositions from April 11 1954 depict coordinated ensembles including a rose-toned set with a pencil skirt and structured blazer rendered with detailed attention to tailoring and fabric accents. Other illustrations include multi-figure studies of women in draped garments with belted waists a single-figure composition in a long gown with fur coat and elongated cigarette holder and portrait studies featuring headpieces veils and bold cosmetic styling. Use of shading color variation and line work emphasizes fabric texture garment movement and body form.<br /> <br /> Produced during a period of significant transformation in women's fashion these illustrations align with the development of modern fashion media including editorial illustration design sketching and commercial garment production. The visual emphasis on proportion tailoring and accessorization reflects the increasing codification of fashion as both industry and cultural expression in the twentieth century. As original works the drawings provide insight into the processes of design visualization and stylistic interpretation supporting research into fashion history gender presentation and visual culture. Light handling wear to mounts and sheets; overall very good condition. unknown
1950218261950. Fashion design archive. 1950s-1960s. This group documents mid-century women's fashion design practice through a sustained body of original sketches and working notes showing how garments were conceived annotated and prepared for construction during a period of stylistic transition in American dress. The material provides direct evidence of design thinking at the level of silhouette fabric selection and pattern planning including repeated attention to cocktail wear outer garments and formal dress. It captures the movement from structured postwar styles toward more experimental and decorative approaches associated with later mid-century fashion with particular emphasis on the technical and aesthetic decisions made by a designer or dressmaker.<br /> <br /> Archive of over 100 original hand-drawn fashion sketches on individual sheets measuring approximately 6.5 x 9 inches executed in ink with extensive handwritten annotations on rectos versos and margins. The drawings depict a range of women's garments including dresses blouses coats and evening wear with recurring titles such as "cocktail dress" "cocktail cape" and "dress." The figures are rendered with attention to line proportion and textile texture often emphasizing drape fitted bodices and surface embellishment. Annotations provide detailed construction guidance including measurements fabric types and pattern instructions. One design for a strappy dress specifies "Pattern: leopard or zebra fur attached.fabric velveteen.color red -- orange -- black." indicating experimentation with bold materials and color combinations. The consistent pairing of image and instruction suggests use as a working portfolio either for client presentation dressmaking production or formal training.<br /> <br /> Mid-century fashion in the United States expanded through department stores home sewing and professional dressmaking with designers and students producing working sketches that translated style into reproducible garments. The presence of detailed technical notes alongside finished illustrations places this archive within that production process linking aesthetic design to practical construction. Light wear from handling; overall very good. A concentrated record of mid-century women's fashion design practice preserving both the visual language and technical methods used to create garments during a period of evolving style. unknown
1950218281950. Fashion design archive likely 1950s to 1960s documenting women's garment design during the mid-century through original working sketches that preserve both style development and the practical language of dressmaking. The archive is strongest as evidence of how women's fashion was conceived on paper before production with repeated attention to silhouette trim fabric and construction. Dresses blouses coats and eveningwear appear throughout placing the material within the visual world of postwar American fashion as it moved from structured elegance toward sharper and more decorative later mid-century forms.<br /> <br /> Archive of over 100 original hand-drawn fashion sketches on individual sheets measuring approximately 6.5 x 9 inches. The drawings are executed in ink and depict a wide range of women's clothing including fitted dresses capes blouses coats and formal designs with careful attention to drape proportion neckline sleeve treatment and surface embellishment. Many sheets are accompanied by dense handwritten notes in the margins or on the reverse recording measurements fabric suggestions and pattern or construction instructions. The combination of illustration and notation gives the sheets the character of working designs rather than purely display drawings and suggests use in dressmaking training or client planning.<br /> <br /> The archive belongs to the history of women's fashion not only as a record of finished styles but as evidence of the design process itself preserving the intermediate stage between idea and garment. Such working sketches show how fashion circulated through manual skill technical knowledge and close attention to fabric and form in the decades before design became fully digitized. Light general wear from use; overall very good. A substantial mid-century design archive that preserves the visual and technical vocabulary of women's fashion making across more than one hundred original sketches. unknown
190556908Chicago IL: American Woolen Mills Co. 1905. Thick elephant folio 17.5 x 21.5 x 3.25 in. 58 pp. printed on thick card stock each mounted on linen hinge. With 6 black & white fashion plates illustrating suit styles of the period with 380 of 400 -- many marked in pencil “O.S.†or Out-of-Stock mounted textile samples in wool wool-silk blends -- all samples clearly marked with prices and availability numerous text illustrations decorative borders printed in colour many showing bucolic scenes of sheep pastures and winter frolics.

First edition of this scarce Progressive-era salesman sample catalogue for Winter season men’s suits overcoats and evening wear. The American Woolen Mills Company also known as the “Progressive Tailorsâ€maintained a huge tailoring operation in Chicago at Union & Washington until the Great Depression employing hundreds of tailors and seamstresses to fill orders. Unlike J.L. Taylor Royal Tailors and many of the other tailoring houses of the period the American Woolen Mills targeted the average white collar clerk or American immigrant salesman and merchant trying to look professional and offered $ 15.00 high class made to measure suits. These catalogues were very expensive to produce and were often issued with minimal company brand names allowing their sales force to target small shops mercantiles and general stores which would have these catalogues on the sales floor for several years. Sales people were directed to simply clip the corners of samples for out-of-stock and discontinued fabrics but they often chose to remove the entire sample in order to not distract potential customers. The catalogue offers invaluable illustrated historical reference for the colours styles and fabrics during the era of Teddy Roosevelt and the Anti-Trust policies even referring to these in their sales pitch by claiming that unlike Trusts which “by combining saves numerous expenses and sticks ALL the savings in its own pocket. . . there is no Trust in the tailoring trade.†They further claim that they remove all middlemen procure woolens directly from the weavers and by avoiding wastes of all kinds that AWM CO. lowers their prices and “it is a public benefit.†The textiles here focus on darker shades and very muted colours along with durable thick fabrics while marketing their double-breasted sacks 3-button frock coats 2-button single breasted suits assorted overcoats and more.

Containing 174 thick cards printed in black and red; each with a mounted woolen worsted wool imported wool sample. Original sample display case w/ green textured cloth over boards divided into Three compartments nickel plate slider hinges printed advertising on inner lid and drop front reinforced corners a remarkable display case from the John the Tailor Shop Suits and Overcoats made to order. Wonderful graphic label on interior of lid featuring dapper dressers and period automobiles.Spectacular tailoring sample counter display for men’s suits and overcoats in the Fall & Winter of 1937-1938. Ferris Woolen Company a subsidiary of Wawak Woolens was originally founded in 1922 in Chicago along with Detmer Woolen Co. Bruner Woolen Co. Mason & Hanson Inc. and Salter & Wolf to supply woolens and trimmings to tailors and department stores across the United States. The companies were known for their high-quality wools at a reasonable price and often incorporated imported wool wool silk blends gabardines and tweeds especially from Scotland Wales France and Great Britain. In 1933 the Wawak Co./Ferris Woolen Co. purchased the exclusive right to all the Detmer Bruner Co. customers West of the Mississippi. They quickly began commissioning and producing display cases reflecting the change and proved very successful with the Ferris Woolen Co. catering to the trade into the 1960s. These sample cases were very expensive to produce and so were most often found in department stores mercantiles and men’s stores which would have these display on the sales floor for two seasons or more often adding or subtracting fabrics as they became available. The samples included with this case offer invaluable textile reference for the colors and fabrics during the era of fashion influenced by the elegance and glamor of Hollywood films and film noir at the time. The styles depicted on the inside of the lid and the drop-down front are reminiscent of the very popular Thin Man fashions worn by William Powell and Myrna Loy at the time.

A wonderful advertising display for Arrow shirts and collars including pre-World War II counter sample case and 1950s promotional ad reproducing one of the famed Leyendecker images. These pieces originally came out of a small men’s clothing shop in Bend Oregon. The Arrow collars grew from the marketing idea by Cluett Peabody & Co. in Troy NY that it gave women an easier way to clean their husbands’ stained shirt collars without having to wash the entire shirt. In addition the collars wore out a much faster rate than the rest of the shirts so these replaceable collars would extend the life of the garments. This style of detachable collars remained popular up until the mid-1930s and largely declined out of use by the end of World War II.Leyendecker 1874-1951 created the Arrow Collar Man which was an advertising campaign that ran from 1905 - 1931 and was perhaps one of the most successful product brands in history. He created 100s of images and many of them are still synonymous with men’s fashion and styles. This advertisement was part of a revived campaign by Arrow Shirt Co. in the 1950s through early 1960s as they revived the nostalgia of the Leyendecker ads and pushed their shirts with soft collars.
