EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the Dolly Sisters, Rosie and Jenny, in their iconic Feathered Evening Frock by Patou, a groundbreaking moment in the history of 1920s fashion. The French couturier, Jean Patou, made headlines in the spring of 1924 when he chose the Dolly Sisters as his publicity weapons to introduce his designs to America. The sisters, known for their theatrical performances and cabaret acts, were the epitome of jazz age glamour. Their flapper style and youthful energy perfectly embodied the spirit of the times. Patou's innovative design, with its intricate feather detailing and elegant silhouette, was a sensation. The photograph was taken in October 1924, and it appeared in various magazines, further solidifying Patou's presence in the American fashion scene. The Dolly Sisters continued to be a source of inspiration for Patou, and their collaboration marked the beginning of a new era in fashion. This image is a testament to the power of fashion as a form of self-expression and cultural influence. The 1920s were a time of great change, and the Feathered Evening Frock by Patou for the Dolly Sisters represents the excitement, energy, and innovation of the era. This photograph is an essential piece of fashion history, and it continues to captivate and inspire us today.
