Roger-Miles, L. (Leon), 1859-1928, Agie, G · 1910 · Paris : C. Eggimann · 152 pictures

A survey of Paris couture houses written by Léon Roger-Miles and published by Charles Eggimann in 1910, addressed to readers of the fashion and decorative-arts trade. Pen-and-ink drawings by G. Agie show single figures in wide plumed hats and high-waisted gowns, rendered in sparse contour line against blank ground, alongside halftone photographs of salon interiors with chandeliers, mirrored panels and mannequins; useful for silhouette cutouts, hatched drapery textures and period interior reference.
