EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 20th century and immerse yourself in the world of haute couture as depicted in this stunning photograph of Rue de la Paix in Paris. The fashionable street, known for its high-end boutiques and elegant shops, is the perfect backdrop for the historic Paquin house, located at number 11. Founded in 1868 by Charles Frederick Worth, Paquin was one of the most renowned fashion houses in Paris during this era. Known for its innovative designs and impeccable craftsmanship, the house quickly gained a reputation among the European elite and royalty. By the early 1900s, Paquin had become a symbol of luxury and sophistication, attracting clients such as Empress Eugénie of France, Queen Victoria, and the future Queen Mary of Teck. In this photograph, taken around 1910, the Paquin house on Rue de la Paix stands proudly, its ornate facade adorned with intricate details and elegant balconies. The costumes displayed in the windows showcase the latest fashion trends of the time, from voluminous skirts and corsets to delicate lace and silk fabrics. The fashionable quarter of Paris, with its grand architecture and bustling streets, is a testament to the city's rich history and enduring love affair with fashion. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of high fashion and the opulence of the Belle Époque era. It is a reminder of the enduring influence of French fashion and the importance of the Rue de la Paix in shaping the fashion industry as we know it today.
