Gilbert Adrian: 1950's Suits by California Designer
This 1950's newspaper advertisement for suits is a great showcase for fashion designer Gilbert Adrian. This regional ad appeared in 1951 while he was at the very height of his career as a fashion designer with a salon that catered to Hollywood's young and fabulous. The fashion illustration is drawn to capture all of the style details that Adrian was famous for, in a layout that uses two suits in different scale, thus calling attention to the larger image. As was common at the time, the artist is not credited.
