Vintage Fashion Photographs

Three unnamed photographs, I would die for that hat
and coat combo on the right!

I came across this fantastic collection of fashion photographs from the early 1900s while perusing the Library of Congress and had to share. The entire set contains more than 60 images from 1900 to 1918, showing off the latest trends, mostly from Paris.
