Description: Welcome to my listing for the softcover brochure Woman of Fashion, Spring-Summer 1947, published in that year as part of an exhibition presented at the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum by Bloomingdale’s (in honor of the department store’s 75th anniversary.) The exhibition featured ensembles by various celebrated American designers, such as Claire McCardell, Pauline Trigere, Omar Kiam and Adele Simpson, who were asked to define the fashion of 1947. The 62-page booklet, which measures 10" by 7.5", displays these outfits in black-and-white photographs paired with descriptive texts. It's in good condition, clean and complete, with undamaged unmarked pages that are lightly yellowed with age; the covers are uncreased, with light handling wear, and bear an owner's name inked along the upper edge. An extremely scarce publication that documents an important and pivotal postwar moment in American fashion history.
