The 1930s industry trade journal Apparel Arts instructs on how to dress for such environs.
The pages shown are from Esquire (including a January 1941 article), not the 1930s trade journal Apparel Arts.
Full reasoning
The post attributes the guidance shown in the attached images to “the 1930s industry trade journal Apparel Arts.” However, the titles visible in the images (“Palm Beach highlights” and “topics for tropics”) correspond to items in the Esquire archive.
- “Palm Beach highlights” is an Esquire piece dated June 1, 1939 (Esquire Classic archive labels it as Esquire).
- “topics for tropics” is an Esquire piece dated January 1, 1941—which is not in the 1930s.
So, at least for the material being shown, the source is Esquire (and one item is 1941), contradicting the claim that this is instruction from the 1930s trade journal Apparel Arts.
