A while back I noted that I had a small collection of "beater" Harper's Bazaars. Here is another issue from March 1951. It is interesting how, in general, vintage Harper's command more than Vogue. I must say they are jammed pack with great photography and ads.
Here is a trip to March 1951...

I love this ad. Every time I look at this particular issue of Bazaar, I come to this ad and I am drawn to the beauty of the necklace she is wearing. I've actually tried to find something similar to this and have been unsuccessful so far.

Of course, we had to add in Jacques Fath, how about some lovely gloves?
I know this page is beat up but I just adore Lilli Ann.. sign me up for this suit!

I love the fashion 'architecture'. My favorite is the Parisian Innovations page!
ReplyDeleteThere is such an unending source of inspiration to be had from these sophisticated, timelessly beautiful looks. From colour combos to accessory ideas, I know I'll be coming back to this (bookmarked, natch!) post time and time again.
