icons: 1920s fashion

[olde_fashioned]

You can blame my watching the BBC House of Elliot series for this batch. ;-P These are one of quite a few batches made a while back but which I haven't gotten around to posting them yet.

Four dozen icons and three wallpapers, all with the theme of the 1920s, mostly Gazette du Bon Ton fashion illustrations, but with some Vintage photos as well. :-) I was really aiming for an old look with these, with the "scratchy" textures and whatnot.

As always, never alter my graphics, comment, credit, and enjoy!

Mwahahaha, I was hoping you'd like them! (but you forgot to tell me which ones you took....*halo*)

[visionsbeyond.livejournal.com]

I love what you`ve done with those B&W icons olde! #37 and 42 really stand out and are stunning! :D

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! :-D

[annoyedannushka.livejournal.com]

Those are lovely.

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[starwriterlv.livejournal.com]

These are really beautiful!

As much as I love the icons you've made period clothes I love seeing these more modern clothes as well.

Fantastic!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Rachel! :-D It was fun to do something different for a change, and actually to get to use photographs of real women wearing the real fashions of the day, rather than just paintings. Not that I don't love art, but you get my meaning. ;-)

These are absolutely gorgeous :-) I'm a huge fan of 1920s fashion and I'm really happy you've made these great icons - lovely cropping and colouring! I snagged quite a lot of them (#1,3,7,17,21,39,42 and 47) and the wallpapers as well ;D I will credit you when used of course.

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Absolutely beautiful! I never tire of images from "Art, Goute, Beaute", "Gazette du Bon Ton" etc - particularly those poichoirs by Barbier.
