Today's images are from a Bella Hess catalogue from 1917. The cover image was common in this war torn time. A girl in the arms of a soldier. I just love the clothing and the hats are beautiful of this time. Every page of this catalogue is filled with wonderful drawings. Unfortunately, the catalogue was starting to fall apart when I was scanning the images. So I am not so sure how much more I can scan.As always feel free to use any of the images on my website in your artwork but please do not post or sell the original image on the web in a group or collection. If you use one in a project and post it to your site please link it back to here or leave a comment in the comments section of the image on this site so we can all enjoy. I love to see what you create. That is what inspires me to post and collect more vintage items.

Oh Cora, these are fabulous! You have such luck finding these gems. I so appreciate you sharing them!
ReplyDeleteI, too, love the clothing and hats of that period. I know it was a hard time to live, unless one had tons of money, but if I could be reincarnated, I would choose that era. The beaded dresses for opera and balls were fantastic designs!
