A century of fashion illustrations brought to life at new exhibit

Before photography, illustrators brought fashion to life. A century of fashion illustration is being celebrated at a new exhibition at the Society of Illustrators in New York with drawings from greats such as Carl ‘Eric’ Ericson and Rene Bouche. “CBS This Morning” co-host Anthony Mason takes a look at the new exhibit that features magazine and other media pieces, including one from his own step-father who illustrated for both “Vogue” and “Town and Country” in the 1950s and 60s.

My sweet wife, Jackie Doyle was one of those women who excelled as a fashion illustrator having worked for many major department stores. Her work is now in the Boston Museum of Fine Art along with many other illustrators of that time.
