Daniel Harris, a scholar of consumption and style, has observed that until photography finally illustration as the “primary means of advertising clothing” in the 1950s, glamour inhered in the face of the drawing, which was by necessity schematic and generalised, than in the sketch’s attitude, posture, and gestures, especially in the dainty positions of the hands. Glamour once resided so emphatically in the stance of the model that the faces in the illustrations cannot be said to have at all, but angles or tilts. The chin raised upwards in a haughty look; the eyes lowered in an attitude of introspection; the head cocked at an inquisitive or coquettish angle: or the profile presented in sharp outline, emanating power the severity like an emperor’s bust on a Roman coin.
