Fashion Friday

It's been awhile since we've done a Fashion Friday post, but we're back at it with the French magazine La Mode! La Mode began in 1896 in Paris and was printed by Le Gérant : E. Durand. I was unable to find out much else about it, partially because its title was part of the titles of other French fashion magazines from the period—but we do know that the printers also printed Le Petit Journal, a popular daily newspaper.

This issue is no. 38 from September 21, 1923 and features a very fashionably dressed woman on the cover. The text at the bottom is an ad for the fabric dye brand Twink and says (translated from French): "Twink allows you to inexpensively dye your babies' pretty dresses." The issue also includes features on hats, coats, and one on the use of embroidered fabrics in interior design. There is also a supplement included with a design pattern (shown in the last image).

Most of the fashions included in this issue are in preparation for chilly fall weather, so let's let it inspire us to enjoy the warm sunny days of summer while we have them!

Comment vous habillerez-vous pour Noël ?

J'ai été faire un peu de shopping aujourd'hui. Je suis repartie avec un gros pull, des sous-vêtements anti-froid, un t-shirt, et sans tenue de Noël. Il n'y avait rien de bien.

Me voilà maintenant sur mes sites de reproduction vintage mais je crois que j'ai envie d'une touche plus moderne cette année... Et tout est cher. En plus quand on fait du 46-48 (merci les confinements pour les kilos repris hein) ce n'est pas facile, ça fait vite le tri.

[julio-viernes]

Leo los homenajes a Steve Harley. Las palabras que le han dedicado Dave Davies, Midge Ure, Boy George, OMD, John Taylor de Duran Duran y Luke Haines de Auteurs: "adiós por ahora Steve Harley. Escucharé 'The Human Menagerie'. Por unos momentos, Cockney Rebel fue más genial que Big Dave. Gran banda y compositor".

Uno de esos momentos pudo ser "What Ruthy Said", del LP de debut de Cockney Rebel en EMI, 1973. Esta siempre la asocié a La Mode de otro gran fan de Harley, Fernando Márquez "El Zurdo".

"Loretta´s Tale" está entre la perezosa indolencia de "Sitting By The Riverside" y la indolencia perezosa de "Susurrando".
