Magenta? We are not talking stage costumes here, do we?
If you are looking for genuine colours for Oxford Bags, in 1925 the most popular colours were:
silver grey; yellow-pink; pale green; powder blue; ‘Bois de Rose’ (described as a “pinky-beigey-brown”); honey; brownish-orange; puce; magenta; jade; violet; lavender; ‘biscuit’; heliotrope; and emerald green.
(these are taken from newspaper articles on Oxford Bags in spring and summer 1925)
Do any members have a pair of original Oxford Bags (British) and Collegiates (US ) that could be loaned out to Luxire to get templates made and dimensions?
