glamourdaze.blogspot.com and retrocalendar.com Restored here in two tone color, a unique little film from the vaults of the internet archive of a woman modeling [ rather shakely ] some new fashion styles from Paris in 1917. Gone are the s-bend silhouettes of the Edwardian Gibson Girl in favour of a softer look. Enjoy.Music by Eric Satie

    The art of modeling has grown so much.
    I believe we should begin to use more average
    women, though. It makes sense to me.

    I’d never seen a two-tone film before, I didn’t even know they existed! So unusual!

    To think all these wonderful films would be lost to history and we’d have never seen them without you taking the time to find and post them. Thank you. :)
