Vintage British Art Deco Fashion Poster, Briggs Waterproofs 1932

This stylish 1932 advertising poster was created for Briggs, the distinguished British outfitter known for its quality waterproof clothing and accessories — a brand that, by the interwar years, had built a reputation for combining practical British craftsmanship with the kind of understated elegance that defines the best of British fashion.

Briggs was a respected name in British retail, associated with quality goods for the discerning customer — umbrellas, waterproofs and accessories that combined function with style in the very British tradition. By 1932, the interwar fashion poster had developed a confident visual language of its own — sleek figures, bold typography and a sense of modern sophistication that sat comfortably between the Art Deco glamour of the 1920s and the more restrained elegance of the 1930s.

This poster is a charming piece of British commercial art history — understated, well-composed and entirely of its time, with the particular quiet confidence that characterises the best British advertising of the interwar period.
