EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning Art Deco fashion sketch, created in 1921 by an unknown artist for Maison Ross in London, captures the essence of the Roaring Twenties' fashion revolution. The crimson velvet gown, adorned with intricate silver and crystal embroidery, exemplifies the sleek lines and modern sensibilities of the era. The floating chains and train, lined with black satin, add an air of sophistication and glamour. The Twenties were a time of great social and cultural change, with jazz music, flapper dances, and the rise of the modern woman influencing fashion trends. This sketch reflects the shift away from the voluminous petticoats and corsets of the past towards a more streamlined, streamlined aesthetic. The clean lines and minimalist design of the gown showcase the elegance and simplicity that defined the Art Deco movement. The sketch was likely published in a fashion magazine of the time, providing inspiration and ideas for women seeking to update their wardrobes. The bold colors, geometric shapes, and luxurious fabrics depicted in the drawing reflect the artistic and aesthetic sensibilities of the era. Today, this sketch serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of the Twenties on fashion and design, and the timeless appeal of the Art Deco style. Maison Ross, a London-based couture house, was known for its innovative and sophisticated designs. This sketch, with its intricate details and beautiful use of color and texture, is a testament to the creativity and skill of the artists and designers who worked there during this exciting and transformative period in fashion history.
