Costumes Parisiens 140: Un lutin
Illustration with a design for a leprechaun costume for girls, part of the 62nd issue of the "Journal des dames et des modes", published in Paris on February 10, 1914. The illustration features a girl with a light green dress with light green wings, a thin belt with green leaves and small yellow and blue rosettes, and matching necklace, and a pointed light green hat with a blue rosette and two green leaves at the tip, posing on a field covered with green grass and scattered rosettes of the same type as those in the girl's costume. A brown rabbit stands next to the girl, looking up at her.
