EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a woman elegantly dressed in a crepe white dress and a yellow taffeta jacket, accessorized with a matching hat, in the style of the early 20th century. The woman's dress, known as a robe de crepon blanc, is a sheath design that clings to her figure, while the jacket, or fourreau, is a veste with embroidered satin detailing. The hat, or bonnet, is also made of taffeta and features a chic cloche silhouette with a bird and cherry blossom tree design. This fashion plate, hand-colored pochoir (stencil) etching, is an illustration from Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, published in Paris in 1913. Antongini's journal was a leading source for fashion trends and was known for its artistic and innovative designs. The image is reminiscent of the Art Deco and Belle Epoque periods, which were characterized by their opulence and ornate detailing. The woman's outfit also bears resemblance to the costumes worn by the dancers of the Ballets Russes, a groundbreaking dance company founded by Sergei Diaghilev in 1909. The company was known for its avant-garde productions and collaborations with artists such as Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, and Leon Bakst. The orientalist influences in the hat and jacket design are also reflective of the cultural exchange and fascination with the exotic during this time. Overall, this image is a stunning representation of the chic and sophisticated fashion trends of the early 1900s and the artistic innovation of the period.
