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]

;-D

[annoyedannushka.livejournal.com]

Those are lovely.

[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!

[eillinora.livejournal.com]

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.

[magic-frybread.livejournal.com]

Very nice work. :)
I took #47 and will credit upon use.

[voske.livejournal.com]

Lovely! I have no room for the icons, but I will be using the wallpapers, thank you.

[princessjune.livejournal.com]

They're all so wonderful! I don't know which to take! Will credit when I use and make up my mind! I know I love 19 and will credit of course when I use it!

The wallpapers are exquisite!

[fencer-42.livejournal.com]

YES!! =)
thank you! i've been waiting for the 20's! love them!

[regency-love.livejournal.com]

wow those are amazing!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! :-D

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[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. ;-)

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I'm glad that you like them. :-)

Nice icon there! ;-D

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you, and enjoy! :-)

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the comment! :-)

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! :-D

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Haha! ;-D Glad to have made something you wanted, then!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :-D

[bittersweetlvgr.livejournal.com]

Oh I know exactly what you mean. :^D

And its always to change things up a bit so that when you go back to one thing that you particularly enjoy it sometimes feels like its brand new.

[starwriterlv.livejournal.com]

Opps. That was me in my other journal.

I've been writing a Gordon and Rachel fic.

I wasn't sure if it would be your cup of tea.

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Haha, that's okay! :-D

Have you now? ;-)

Well I have no problems with fanfic so long as it's clean, if you catch my drift. I'd be happy to read it if it would be rated only for language/violence?

[starwriterlv.livejournal.com]

Yup.

It's just that...in it I show if Rachel & Gordon had a bit of an affiar...while he was separated from Barbara. There are scenes from Batman Begins & The Dark Knight. There are some intimate scenes they are not exploitative or anything I just wasn't sure if you would like the idea of Gordon not being with Gordon and such.

I'm still revising and such...if you would like...you are more than welcome to read it...I could friend you back if you want. (I gave some of my reason in the userinfo)

[greeneyedmissy.livejournal.com]

Wow, they're all so lovely! I snagged a few and a couple of the wallpapers. Great job! :)
