EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases three iconic outfits designed by Courreges in 1961, each embodying the essence of chic, elegance, and sophistication that defined the fashion scene during the 1960s. On the far left, a double-sided cloth coat in tan and white reverses the trend with its chopped-off sleeves, horizontal welt seaming, and dropped shoulder line. The brimless hat, made of black kid, complements the outfit with its sleek and minimalist design. Moving to the center, a heavy black and white houndstooth wool tweed suit is belted with fine black calf, exuding an air of confidence and refinement. The body of the jacket is cut on the bias and set into a deep yoke cut on the straight of the material, while the skirt is slightly gathered at the waist and tapers towards the hemline. The hat, made of black calfskin, adds a touch of timeless elegance to the ensemble. Lastly, on the right, a two-piece dress in heavy oatmeal jersey features a long slim front panel, with the top loose at the back and fitted in front. The design is cut away to reveal a bow of brown suede, adding a playful and stylish touch to the outfit. These Courreges creations from 1961 represent the height of fashion innovation and sophistication, capturing the spirit of the 1960s and continuing to inspire fashion enthusiasts to this day.
