Couture Comix, no. 120


News
The latest in a series of comics by our regular contributor and photographer Paula Sweet
September 17, 2024/2.44


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, ‘Is it better?’ Image shows a homeless person with a bindle, subtitled '1930', and a similar homeless person with a shopping trolley, subtitled '2024'.
