When style meant something unlike today

That's a great find Kenneth, one I'm passing on to my daughter who I know will love it.

I was pleased to discover some Norman Parkinson pictures amongst the collection. In my opinion one of the best portrait and fashion photographers that the UK has produced (NP Archive - prices begin at £3500!).

His sausages are pretty good too...

Thanks for the link Roy. I don't think we will ever return to the days when beautiful cloths did not need a label sown to the outside to denote quality. In those days the cut and the style were all that were needed to denote quality and the women who wore the cloths were elegant, a term one cannot use today even with the best Haute Couture.

Thanks Kenneth, I'll pass them on.
As a graduate of the London College of Fashion she has a keen interest in Steven Meisel's work - and Testino - bought her a book by him for Christmas, cost a fortune!
