EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Marguerite Namara, a renowned French actress and singer from the Opera Comique in Paris, dazzles in a bold and innovative banana-colored creation that she herself designed. The image, taken in 1925, showcases Marguerite in a dress and coat that embody the spirit of the Roaring Twenties. The vibrant hue of the dress, reminiscent of the tropical fruit, stands out against the black and white backdrop, making Marguerite a true vision of modernity and flair. As she prepared for her role in the new operetta "Empress Josephine" at the Century Theatre in New York, Marguerite chose to make a statement with her fashion choices, reflecting the jazz age's influence on the world of high fashion. The grandeur of the Century Theatre in NYC, a symbol of the United States' cultural scene, was the perfect stage for Marguerite to showcase her unique style. Marguerite Namara, a trailblazer in her own right, was known for her daring fashion choices and her ability to captivate audiences both on and off the stage. Her collaboration with the finest French couturiers of the time, as well as her own designs, solidified her status as a fashion icon of the 1920s. This photograph is a testament to her fearless spirit and her commitment to pushing the boundaries of what was considered fashionable during an era of immense change and creativity.
