I tried looking up the different films mentioned but I couldn't find any clips from any of them. Given that over 90% of silent films have been lost, it is very possible none of these are still surviving. It always makes me sad when reading really old movie magazines, since whenever I try to look up a film that sounds interesting it is almost always no longer in existence.
These are so delightfully chic and glamorous - love (and would happily wear) them all! Thank you for sharing this page with us, dear Kate, you always find such awesome yesteryear fashion illustrations.
Wish coats still looked like these. It also makes me want to watch the movies referenced and see them in action.
