Description How Paris Dresses for Peace - Fashion in 1919
Details

Page from The Sketch reporting on various fashions sighted in Paris in the peace year of 1919 demonstrating the beginnings of 1920s style. The French actress Gaby Deslys is seen top centre wearing spotted shoes to match her dress, and the dress top right, so widely worn by the early 1920s is described as, 'freakish but fashionable. The shapeless silhouette is not so easy to achieve as it looks.' The tubular style would soon become synonymous with the next decade.
