EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the Paquin Phelps soiree dansante held in March 1923, a stunning display of elegant gowns takes center stage. The event marked the amalgamation of the esteemed British fashion house of Elspeth Phelps with the legendary Paquin of Paris, a union that promised to bring a fresh wave of innovation to the world of haute couture. On the left, a masterpiece in fuschia tints graces the mannequin, its flowing lines and delicate draping exuding an air of feminine grace. The gown's subtle sheen catches the light, adding an ethereal quality to its already captivating presence. In stark contrast, the bacchante dress on the right is an extravagant creation of gold tissue, its sun-tinted georgette overlay shimmering with every move. The dress's voluminous skirt and plunging neckline evoke a sense of opulence and decadence, perfect for a night of revelry and celebration. Rounding out the selection is a Victorian-inspired gown of teal green peau de soie on the right-hand page. Its panniers and intricate gold & black lace detailing harken back to a bygone era, adding a touch of nostalgia to the modern display. The mannequins, dressed in these exquisite creations, stand proudly, their stillness a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship that went into bringing these designs to life. The Paquin Phelps soiree dansante was a night to remember, a celebration of fashion and design that showcased the best of both worlds - the classic elegance of Elspeth Phelps and the avant-garde flair of Paquin of Paris.
