EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of Parisian glamour and fashion in the early 20th century. The Parisienne in the photograph is elegantly dressed in a corset skirt, a popular style during this period. The underside view of her outfit provides a unique perspective, revealing the intricate details of her corset and the green jupon, or under-skirt, that adds an extra layer of sophistication to her ensemble. The Parisian woman's corset, with its laced-up front and boned structure, was a symbol of feminine beauty and hourglass figures. The corset skirt, a fusion of undergarment and outerwear, was a daring and innovative fashion trend that allowed women to showcase their curves while maintaining a modest appearance. The setting of the photograph is the Comédie-Française, a renowned French theatre located in Paris. The theatre's grandeur and opulence are reflected in the Parisienne's refined attire and the luxurious texture of her skirt. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of Parisian style and the intricate details of early 20th-century fashion. The Parisienne's confident and stylish demeanor exudes an air of sophistication and elegance, making this image a timeless piece of fashion history.
