  • Modenschau – April 1930

    Apr 20, 2025 — 

    The new fashion silhouette was presented from its most beautiful, colorful side in the issue of Modenschau no. 208 for April 1930. The higher waistline and longer, wide bell-shaped skirts emphasized the slim, feminine figure. Coats and jackets also adopted the higher waistline and gave ensembles and costumes a new touch.

    Contributions in the issue had celebrities talk about the "Moment of My Greatest Fear" or reported on the burgeoning eagerness of children to work ("Mommy, I'll Help You!").
