Illustration of three models wearing day-to-evening wear. The model on the far left is wearing a short-sleeve hand-knit sweater and a black Rodier wool jersey skirt with paillettes of roses across it, and has a silk crocheted scarf on her head; by Traina-Norell. The model in the center is wearing a red-and-black plaid jacket in English wool trimmed by black bugle beads and ball fringe at the collar, over a simple black silk velvet dress, and a hat with a pailletted veil; available at Hattie Carnegie. The model at right is wearing a green dress in sheer Rodier wool that features a pailletted collar, cuffs, and belt; by Omar Kiam. They appear to be standing in the hallway of a theatre; seated audience members can be seen through red curtains. Signed "Eric" by artist.
