Japanese illustrator "Matsuo Yumi (Matsuo Yumi)" follows "WaltzFollowing that, another impressive classic is Magazine Rondo!

The creative theme revolves around the fictional women's fashion magazine "RONDO" (Chinese translation: 《RONDO》).RondoThis is a special issue released to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the magazine's founding. The cover design mimics the magazine's, with a slightly worn-looking leather strap; the inner cover has a smooth material, and I especially love the two illustrations on the inner cover!

Spanning from 1922 to 2022, the magazine offers a glimpse into the popular trends of different eras, including women's clothing, accessories, and fine consumer goods. Presented in a familiar magazine column and advertising format, it also showcases the covers and table of contents of different issues, demonstrating meticulous attention to detail. 💕

In addition, there are also short stories in color comics.

Overall, the illustrations combine traditional Japanese style with Western fashion elements, showcasing a variety of designs that will surely capture the reader's heart! 👘

Because this illustration collection contains a lot of text, in addition to the original Japanese version, the Chinese version is also worth collecting, as it can help you better understand the background setting of the magazine.
