Yes, I know, but that’s not what I meant. I meant that she herself seems to belong to that era, whereas the other models look modern; when I see her, I think she could be an actress from back then, while the others could be models on a contemporary runway or in an issue of *Vogue Noir*.

Thank you. Color film was being used in 1940s but it was expensive so b&w was still the norm, especially for film noir. I think the b&w ones here play into that femme fatale film noir vibe

CaylaCatz

Oh , I see. I agree. She does look like she could have starred in a movie inthe 1940s. There is strength in her face.

Very good! Number 2 is my favorite because it really looks like it's from that era; the others look modern.

Two does nail the authenticity, but I like 4 the best. Great work!

CaylaCatz

Thank you! Yeah, the B&Ws have the film noir vibe
