EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a groundbreaking ski outfit designed by the visionary Elsa Schiaparelli in 1929. The outfit, which includes loosely cut breeches in dark blue toile and a fitted jumper, is a testament to Schiaparelli's innovative approach to fashion and her ability to redefine the boundaries of style in the 1920s. The jumper features a novel hood-like cap, adding a playful touch to the otherwise practical outfit. The gloves and socks, both in hand-knitted wool of dark blue splashed with a striking dash of yellow, add a pop of color and warmth to the ensemble. Schiaparelli's signature originality is evident in the bold use of color and the unexpected design elements, making this ski outfit a standout piece from the era. The image captures the essence of the 1920s, a time of experimentation and innovation in both fashion and sport. This photograph is not only a fascinating glimpse into the history of skiing fashion but also a reminder of Elsa Schiaparelli's enduring influence on the world of design.
