VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is an illustration from the cover of "La Vie Parisienne, " dated Saturday, 26 September 1936. It depicts a stylishly dressed man and woman in vintage golf attire, standing on what appears to be a golf course. The man wears a double-breasted jacket with wide lapels, patterned tie, knickers (plus fours), long socks, and two-tone shoes; he holds a golf club over his shoulder and looks at the woman with a smile. The woman sports a short-sleeved blouse with collar and necktie, high-waisted trousers that also resemble knickers or plus fours style, long socks matching her outfit's color scheme, gloves, and classic single-strap shoes; she too holds her golf club casually over her shoulder. The text above them reads "LA VIE PARISIENNE" which translates to "Parisian Life. " Below the image are French phrases: "Alors ce costume me va bien?" meaning "So does this suit look good on me?" followed by another phrase likely said by the other character: "Dites plutot que vous allez bien à ce costume!" translating as “Rather say that you go well with this suit!” This playful exchange suggests they are complimenting each other's appearance or discussing how well they fit into their fashionable sportswear. The overall feel of the image is light-hearted and captures an essence of leisure activity among the fashionable elite during that era.
