I have always loved the shifting boundaries of this 1935 #Vionnet dress. The sleek black column beneath is overlaid with a sheer, ghostly silhouette, both hiding and revealing #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

Although she became the queen of the bias cut in the 1930s, Madeleine Vionnet was active for years beforehand. Her #1920s garments offer the same attention to fabric manipulation, this sheer red layered gown a showstopper for sure #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

Another firm favourite in the form of the collective genius of Callot Soeurs, those marvellous makers of early 20th century couture. Evening gown c1907 #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

Different layers of top stitch and chain stitch have been deployed to embellish the surface of glistening silver lamé here. Like wave dappled sand as the tide retreats, it leaves shining ripples. Lanvin, 1930 #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

I am having fashion exhibition FOMO, seeing the images of the new exhibition Paul Poiret: Fashion is a Feast on now in Paris. This c1910 evening dress just one of those that charts his avant garde design and early c20th change #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

I loved the backdrop used by #madparis for a series of photography. The grey removes distractions and the garment is the main attraction. These is something almost pensive about this #1780s gown, or am I just being an old romantic? #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

to showcase the types of outfits available when Poiret first started working in fashion. A great contrast to his more progressive looks. Although this is so sweet! I still call it the Winnie-the-Pooh Hundred Acre Woods dress. #Fashionhistory #madparis

The navy blue buttons and border that decorate the edges of this pink wool jersey dress almost appear to have been sketched onto the surface of the fabric in bold strokes, a #1930s fashion illustration brought to life #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

Another garment that features in the Paul Poiret: Fashion is a Feast exhibition is this new to me early #1950s #Schiaparelli, included to demonstrate Poiret’s influence on future design. This has the sculptural quality of a ceramic, an ornament of style #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

For Unsuitable Dog Walk Attire this morning, a completely different animal in the shape of a Dartmoor pony, traditional inhabitants of the moor. Appropriately then, Vionnet’s 1921 headed gown referencing Ancient Greek ceramics, called Petits Chevaux #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

I don’t quite know how best to describe this fabric. It looks as though it had grown out of a tree trunk, gnarly swirls of changing, bark-like shades fashioned into human form. It is a c1890 wood nymph, able to step into a woodland and disappear from view #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

I wonder if Yves Saint Laurent had in mind the voluminous c18th robe de volante in mind when he designed this puff ball hemmed gown in 1960? Whilst worn in different contexts there is something déshabillé about them both, in metres of cloth. YSL #madparis robe #palaisgalliera #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

I haven’t shared Doucet’e early #1900s bee dress in a while and it is perfect bee weather so here it is. The white background highlights the unusual embroidery darting about the surface of the gown, each striped insect alighting on different parts of the dress #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

Poiret’s designs from the early #1910s exist both in real life an in the great artistry of fashion illustration, notably through the work of Paul Iribe. His stylised depictions have become synonymous with the garments themselves. Dress 1912 #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

Any folk who have followed me here for a while may recall that I am not a fan of the HOT weather. Much as I may love a stylish option for a heatwave in theory (I give you #1930s beach pajamas as an excellent example here) in practice I think I am probably 98% viking #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

パリ装飾美術館のイリス・ヴァン・ヘルペン展へ。

彼女はファッションデザイナーとかクチュリエというよりは造形家なのだよなと。

2012年くらいまでの作品はより実験色が強く、挑戦的で勢いがある
年に二回何か出さなきゃいけないモード界のシステムがこの才能を潰しませんように

写真たくさんupしたいので時間ある時に返信でぼちぼち繋げていきます
