Zijden kousen by Eric Rohman, 1927

Step into the roaring twenties with this vibrant 1927 Swedish movie poster for the film 'Silk Stockings,' advertised here as 'Laura vill skiljas' (Laura Wants a Divorce). Artist Eric Rohman captures the ultimate Art Deco glamour, depicting star Laura La Plante as a chic, independent woman clutching a massive red suitcase and a pile of clothes against a dramatic black backdrop. The bold typography and sleek illustration style perfectly reflect the era's fascination with modernity and female independence. It’s a fantastic snapshot of how early Hollywood marketed the 'modern woman' to audiences in Stockholm, promising a comedy that was 'elegant, witty, and spicy.'
