Summer Coats, Été 1949 - L'Homme - Women Vintage French Fashion 1950's

In the 1950s haute couture and ready-to-wear were one of France's major economic sectors and a veritable fashion breeding ground. This was haute couture's golden age, when Paris regained its title of world fashion capital.

This illustration by C. Breyner for L'Homme, Été 1949, presents two women strolling in a Parisian park — one in a crisp white double-breasted coat with a white hat, the other in a soft blue-grey plaid coat with brown gloves. Light, refined, and unmistakably Parisian.
