New York City’s “Fashion Week” was first held on July 19, 1943,with one main purpose: to give fashion buyers alternatives to French fashion during World War II, when workers in the fashion industry were unable to travel to Paris. Since we’re celebrating Fashion a week in December, I wanted to create a vintage 1943 Christmas in New York moodboard to inspire your layouts. Take as much inspiration from the board as you want!



And here’s my take on the challenge!

I used a vintage-looking ornament die cut, a black/white/red color scheme like the photo in the middle, fonts similar to those in the image, and little word/phrase stickers that reminded me of the date strip in the center image. Also, layout is about mailing Christmas cards, so I was insipired by the mailman in the photo!
