Graphic Art and Illustrations of Vintage Fashion and Style
If you love the charm of vintage fashion and appreciate the art of fashion design of a glorious era of close to a century ago, it is certain that like many of us boomers, you'll love graphic art and illustrations of classic clothing and accessories designs.
Pictures of fashion as far back as the very early 1900s (a century ago) up until the 1960s are delightful images to behold.
Hardly comparable to photo art and digital images of the 21st century, vintage art has a unique quality of its own . . . could be the fact that a good number are in black and white, some in sepia ("a reddish-brown colour associated particularly with monochrome photographs of the 19th and early 20th centuries") while the majority are in colour, or as paper prints of sketches, including painted artwork.
There is royalty free vintage fashion graphic art you can find on Clip Art, Shutterstock, and Pixaby sites to mention a few. However, a majority of free sites only allow you use them for personal and not commercial use. So you can't really download such images, blow up the sizes, print them out and hang them on your walls!
You will also find (for sale) art illustrations of classic fashion and style that's not only unique and special but will make wonderful focal points in your living room, dining room, or hallway.
Prices of such beautiful art may range from a few dollars to a few hundred dollars, depending on a number of factors like if they are on canvas, are posters, lithographs, rare photographs, vector art, or prints.
Size is another factor that may determine how cheap, affordable or expensive haute couture artwork is.
