Art - Goût - Beauté, Feuillets de l' élégance féminine, Juin 1932, No. 142, 12e Année, p. 22 1932

This fashion plate from June 1932, made by H. Rouit, likely used a combination of ink and watercolor to depict these elegant designs. Just imagine Rouit at their drawing board, carefully outlining each figure, maybe humming a tune. Each line, each curve, perfectly captures the essence of 1930s glamour. Look at the way the light reflects on the satin gowns; it's almost tangible, isn't it? I wonder, did Rouit have a favorite dress among these designs? There is a lightness to the composition, and it reminds me of Erté, another fashion illustrator of the time. It’s like they were all in conversation about line and form, each pushing the boundaries of what illustration could be.
