Scarf and Gloves by Chanel, Mannequin by Pierre Imans, 1934  ‘At the right you see one of the smartest of Chanel’s ideas for spring – gloves and scarf of taffeta printed in tidy little gingham checks. The ends of the scarf, with their bows, join together to make a crisp chou under your chin. The Aris gloves cross their palms with leather.

🤍 A Celestial Birthday 🤍 Huene’s lover and protégé Horst P. Horst was born on this day in 1906 in Germany. ‘Horst and Natasha Paley, 1932, photographed by George Hoyningen-Huene. A still from a movie - it had no title and no plot, and was never completed - that Huene was shooting. Here Horst has rescued Princess Paley (then married in real life to the couturier Lucien Lelong) from being run over by a taxi in a storm.’ From the book Horst: His Work and His World by Valentine Lawford #horstphorst #natashapaley #georgehoyningenhuene #1930s #filmhistory #1930sfashion #blackandwhitephotography #vintagephotography #classicphotography
