Vintage tech photographic fabrics
Vintage tech of 1940s – the time when printing photos on fabric was Big News, a remarkable achievement, magazine LIFE wrote in December 1947, “anyone claiming to have seen a dinner dress decorated with life-size photographs of the wearer would have met with breath-sniffing suspicion or clinical alarm. Today, however, such dresses can be made and photographs of everything from animals to pearl necklaces are being printed not only on dress fabrics but on upholstery, pillows, ties, bathing suits and lingerie.”
