☣️🐀☢️ Tarchaak gets to debut in art form! Despite the fact I've had him as a character for a few years now. He's a botanist and environmental science tech (and eco-terrorist but we don't talk about that out in the open) but his hobbies include club dancing and being as Extra as possible.

Just a few things I would wear if I were famous

[achronalart]

It's my birth month, so as a fashion history treat, here's the cover of a 1928 wholesale catalog from I. Arbus & Sons, New York, who I think were connected to the famous photographer Diane Arbus, who would have been five years old when this catalogue came out.

The catalog is 24 pages, sepia-toned black-and-white, of various styles of dresses fashionable in summer 1928, 14 by 21 cm (5.5 x 8 inches). Many of the fashion illustrations appear to be photographs, but the dresses the models are wearing are either painted on or very heavily retouched. There are a few purely painted illustrations.

I'm going to see about loading up more pages this month. Meanwhile, here's a start.
