EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a woman dressed in an exquisite corn-yellow velvet gown, accentuated by a black waistcoat. The image, created in 1913 by Pierre E. Legrain, captures the essence of elegance and sophistication during the Belle Époque era. The woman's dress is meticulously handcoloured with pochoir (stencil) technique, adding depth and vibrancy to the already luxurious fabric. The little waistcoat made of black velvet beautifully contrasts with the corn-yellow gown, creating a striking visual effect. This fashion plate was originally featured in Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, a renowned publication that showcased the latest trends and styles of the time. It exemplifies both Art Deco influences and Orientalism aesthetics that were popular during this period. The intricate details of this attire reflect not only the artistic talent of Legrain but also his ability to capture the spirit of Parisian chic. This ensemble could have easily been worn by dancers from Ballets Russes or fashionable women attending high-society events. As we admire this stunning piece from early 20th-century fashion history, it serves as a reminder of how style has evolved over time while still retaining its timeless allure.
