Berlin fashion journal STYL - "The Green Veil" - 1922
This STYL print features a coat design by designer V. Manheimer, illustrated by Berlin fashion designer Annie Offterdinger.
The print is titled "The Green Veil" and is one of the lithographs from 1922 published in the Berlin fashion journal STYL (appeared as plate 4 in issue 5/6).
The illustration depicts an elegant woman in a long coat, adorned with sumptuous fur accents, in front of a stylized interior with furniture and curtains. Offterdinger's drawing is notable for its minimalist yet expressive lines.
