Vintage Silhouette Clip Art - Woman in Oval Frame

Click on image to enlarge

I think these old silhouettes are just so charming!!! This one was from an old hairnet package, back when hairnets were made out of human hair, of all things! I think it's probably from around the 1920s. The oval frame around it, gives the silhouette a great classic look, like an old Cameo almost!

  7. Hairnets were made from hair? wow I bet it looked more realistic if you had the right shade. I love hearing about fashion and beauty info from the past. Katharine

    P.S. Did you get the oldfashioned picture attachment I sent you?
