An original and complete issue of "Eva," a fashion plate catalog (figurín) for the Spring-Summer 1957 season. This publication was not a standard newsstand magazine but a specialized style guide issued by the Academia A.E.I., a cutting and sewing correspondence school based in San Sebastián, Spain, for its students.
This catalog serves as an authentic document of Spanish fashion during the mid-20th century, reflecting the popular silhouettes and styles of the era. It was intended as a visual resource for home seamstresses and aspiring designers studying through the academy's courses.
