1917 Lace Fashions on Clothing

Posted by Jessica Kay Murray | Sep 9, 2014 | Old Magazine Scans | 0 |

This entry is part 3 of 7 in the series The Modern Priscilla - April 1917

Here is some 1917 advice and articles from the Modern Priscilla on adding lace to women’s clothing, decorating hats with embroidery, and an article or advertisement about Summer Blouses of Viole fabric. I scanned these several times to capture both the vintage ads as well as the articles from this magazine. I especially enjoyed the ad for the Bella & Hess catalogue featuring Spring and Summer fashions and Easter fashions, and also the article on how to embroider a hat.

Professional WordPress nerd. Lover of all things older than me. I am fascinated by early 1900s labor and feminist history, and have a sporadic addiction to reading nonfiction about those things on Archive.org. I scan old photographs and ephemera when I get really super bored. On Etsy I sell vintage clothing that I got as part of an interesting trade deal a few years ago.
