EDITORS COMMENTS
In this elegant and captivating image from the early 20th century, a woman gracefully skips along a garden path, her white nainsook ruffled dress billowing around her as she moves with effortless grace. The dress, made of light and breathable nainsook fabric, features voluminous frills and embroidered brodes that add a touch of femininity and sophistication to her outfit. She wears a matching bonnet adorned with a delicate ribbon and carries a chaise longue in her hand, suggesting a leisurely afternoon spent in the sun. The woman's pose and attire are reminiscent of the Orientalist influences that dominated European fashion during the Belle Époque and Art Deco periods. The use of hand-coloured pochoir (stencil) etching adds an artistic touch to the print, making it a beautiful and timeless piece of fashion history. This image is a reproduction of an illustration by Marie-Madeleine Franc-Nohain, published in Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes in Paris in 1914. The Journal was known for its fashion plates and was a popular source of inspiration for Parisians seeking the latest trends and styles. The image is also reminiscent of the costumes worn by the dancers of the Ballets Russes, which were renowned for their innovative and avant-garde designs during this period. Overall, this charming print captures the essence of chic and elegant fashion during the early 20th century.
