EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1926, showcases two elegant women dressed in fashionable afternoon attire, each representing the unique and distinctive styles of Jean Patou and Paul Poiret. On the left, a woman gracefully poses in a chic black crepe de chine afternoon dress by Jean Patou. The dress, trimmed with exquisite white pearls and Moroccan detailing, epitomizes the Art Deco era's glamour and sophistication. The simple yet stunning design accentuates the woman's figure, making her the picture of refinement and elegance. In contrast, the woman on the right dons a v-neck striped dress by Paul Poiret. The belt cinched around her hips adds definition to her waistline, creating an hourglass silhouette. The vertical stripes of the dress elongate her figure, making her appear tall and slender. The classic v-neckline and timeless striped pattern showcase Poiret's innovative and forward-thinking approach to fashion. Both women exude an air of confidence and style, embodying the essence of the 1920s and the fashionable women of the era. This photograph is a testament to the creativity and artistry of the fashion designers of the time and serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of the 1920s on modern fashion.
