Free Printable Fashion History Illustrations for Altered Art, Graphic Design, Papercrafts or Scrapbooking: Edwardian Ladies in Promenade Costumes 1 (1904)

I was the world in which I walked, and what I saw
Or heard or felt came not but from myself;
And there I found myself more truly and more strange.
Wallace Stevens, The Collected Poems

A pair of vintage fashion hstory illustrations from 1904. The Edwardian lady on the left is strolling around the park with an open parasol over her shoulder; the Edwardian lady on the right is pictured with a fancy walking stick in one hand while consulting a pocket guide book in her other hand. Original black and white engravings are from my personal collection of antique La Mode Illustrée magazines.
