More Russian fashions from 1928!

A follow-up from my last post. The sportier styles in these pages are great. And while I can't understand the text, there are some nice photos of the New 1920s Woman in action–playing tennis, lacrosse (?), and even riding a motorbike. 



There's more under here:

Russian fashions from 1928

The 1920s were a great decade for fashion. While most people immediately think of designers like Chanel and Poiret, glamorous fashions were not limited to France. This magazine (source unknown, sorry) is from Russia and dates from 1928. I'll break up the posts over the next few days. 


The cover looks nothing like the rest of the illustrations in the magazine.




There's more after the jump!

Crochet et tricot 1928 pt. 2

A continuation of my last post. Some men's patterns in this one, including suspenders and a tie. Super fun stuff! I haven't tested any of these patterns, but since most of them are basically rectangles, they should be easy enough to figure out, even if you can't read French.

Crochet et Tricot 1928

From Gallica, again. Don't forget you can download a .PDF of the entire issue. Lots of fun stuff in this post and the next one, including a girdle, a dress, and "combinations".





Socks, double-breasted vests, and lingerie under the jump!
