We've got some cool 1930s fashion posters by Jean Darroux (Paris)

We've got little posters with illustrative work from Jean Darroux. A Parisien tailor who designed several series of designs, probably for other tailors to use.

The 1930s was a decade marked by economic and social change, and this is reflected in the fashion of the time. Men's fashion in the 1930s was characterized by a sleek, tailored look, with clean lines and a focus on practicality.

1930s men's fashion

Suits were the staple of men's fashion in the 1930s, with single- and double-breasted options available. The jackets had broad shoulders and tapered waists, and the trousers were straight-legged with a high rise. Fabrics such as wool, tweed, and flannel were popular choices for suits, and they were often paired with a dress shirt and tie.

Sportswear in the 1930s

In addition to suits, sportswear also played a big role in men's fashion during the 1930s. Knitwear, such as sweaters and cardigans, were popular choices for casual wear. Golfing and tennis outfits were also in vogue, and these were typically made from lightweight, breathable fabrics.

Accessories in 1930s men's fashion

Accessories were an important part of men's fashion in the 1930s. Hats were a must-have, with fedoras and trilby styles being particularly popular. Scarves, gloves, and pocket squares were also commonly worn, and these helped to add a touch of elegance to an outfit.

WE SEE THE BEAUTY IN EVERY OBJECT

We love old posters and little items from forgotten times. Or think about a children's book from fifty or sixty years ago. It's fun to look at and to imagine what people were doing and thinking back then.

That's why: we see the beauty in every object and art is everywhere to be discovered.
