I collect in my L'Art et la Mode magazines. These were high fashion magazines that I believe were published weekly. I picked up a handful from my collection from 1921-1925 and came up with several styles of bandeau. Below is a list of the from the magazines by year. Fashion designers' names and type of bandeau appear after the specific years.

All the examples of bandeau were worn for eveningwear. Events were parties, balls, opera, theatre, and dancing.

I have a larger collection of the magazine from 1905-1919. I don't have time to pull them out. I do not read French so bare with me.
