Costumes Parisiens 98: Robe de linon de fil
Plate with an illustration of a white linen evening gown, part of the 42nd issue of the "Journal des dames et des modes", published on July 20, 1913. The illustration features a woman trying on a white linen gown, narrow and tied around the waist with a linen belt with tassels hanging on her back, and matching white high heels, looking at herself on a mirror with a brown wooden frame with golden accents, including small neoclassical vases, inside a room with red floors and gray walls. Her blonde hair is tied to form a chignon, and we see her from two three-quarter angles.
