Step into the enchanting world of Riviera evening wear as depicted in this stunning illustration by Edmund Blampied, published in The Bystander in 1923. The French Riviera, with its glamorous nightlife and elegant atmosphere, provided the perfect backdrop for women to showcase their most ornate and elaborate gowns. Despite the simplicity and ease of daywear during the 1920s, when it came to evening attire, nothing was held back. Women embraced the opportunity to dazzle and impress in their most elegant and extravagant dresses. The illustration showcases a range of stunning gowns, each more beautiful than the last. From flowing chiffon numbers with intricate beading to fitted velvet gowns with dramatic trains, these dresses exude an air of sophistication and glamour. Blampied's illustration captures the essence of the Riviera's allure, with its warm, golden hues and the soft, ethereal quality of the women's gowns. The illustration also highlights the attention to detail and craftsmanship that went into creating these beautiful garments. From the delicate embroidery to the intricate beading and fringing, every detail is meticulously rendered. As the sun sets over the French Riviera, women don their most beautiful gowns and prepare to step out into the night. The atmosphere is electric, filled with the sound of laughter, music, and the clinking of champagne glasses. The Riviera's evening wear forecast for 1923 was clear: nothing was too ornate or elaborate for the occasion. And with these stunning gowns, women were more than ready to make a statement and turn heads.
