Paquin Shoulders Warm Wear Worth 1926 Manteaux
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, captures the essence of outdoor fashion in the 1920s as two stylish ladies don manteaux to keep their shoulders warm against the chill. The manteaux, a popular outerwear trend of the era, were long, sleeveless garments that draped elegantly over the shoulders and could be secured with a brooch or clasp. The lady on the left wears a manteaux by the esteemed French designer, Charles Frederick Worth. Known as the "father of haute couture," Worth's designs were sought after by European royalty and the elite. The manteaux, made of rich, luxurious fabric, exudes an air of sophistication and elegance. The lady's hat, with its wide brim and decorative ribbon, complements the manteaux perfectly, completing her chic winter ensemble. The lady on the right dons a manteaux by Joseph Paquin, another renowned designer of the time. Paquin was a Canadian-born designer who made a name for himself in Paris and was known for his innovative designs and use of new materials. The manteaux, made of a lighter fabric, has a more playful and modern feel, with its asymmetrical hemline and bold geometric pattern. The lady's hat, with its narrow brim and art deco detailing, adds a touch of glamour to her outfit. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of outdoor fashion in the 1920s, showcasing the elegance and sophistication of the era's clothing trends and the influence of influential designers like Worth and Paquin.
