bonnie cashin: girlhood fashion and costume illustrations, 1920-1930
 

As illustrated by this line-up of styles in hats and coiffures, Cashin was keenly interested in the details that create character, a sensitivity that served her well in Hollywood as well as in depicting the "type" of woman that wore her later fashions.

Ink and watercolor illustration, c. 1927.
