Couture Comix, no. 117


News
The latest in a series of comics by our regular contributor and photographer Paula Sweet
August 27, 2024/2.40


Many of you will know Paula Sweet’s photography in the travel section, ‘Volante’, of Lucire, but her talents go well beyond photography. She created the Muslin Mink, iconic enough that the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC has a three-quarter-length one in its permanent collection. In an ongoing weekly series, we present Paula’s humorous observations on the world of fashion.
 
Caption reads, ‘ How can the new small clothes cost as much as the old big clothes?’ Image shows a person with a long-sleeved top and trousers on the left, and another person wearing a bandeau top and briefs.
