Robert Bouché was such an amazing artist. This could hang in a museum alongside any work of 'proper art'.
All the Vogue illustrators were truly super artists. Absolutely incredible who much style, mood and atmosphere they generate with a few minimalistic strokes. Genius.
All these early male models look sooooo self conscious: probably because there was so little work for them that they were rank amateurs compared with the women.
What you say is so true.Fascinating.
Men’s high fashion didn’t exist during this era in America— and absolutely not documented in any high fashion print. It’s an invaluable glimpse into what was considered a standard alongside women's high fashion. Sure, it’s all just preppy gear— and these supposedly teens dressed and look like their dads/granddads (LOL), but interesting nonetheless.
