The art déco exhibition, celebrating 100 years since the Exposition Internationale that launched the movement, was too busy (crowds of people in the very narrow spaces of the Musée des Arts Déciratifs (MAD…) to be truly enjoyable, but there are some gorgeous pieces on display… #ArtDéco #MADParis
Side view of a pale coloured robe à la polonaise with a fitted bodice and a long skirt that is ruched at the back. It is shadowy and so slightly mysterious
I loved the backdrop used by #madparis for a series of photography. The grey removes distractions and the garment is the main attraction. These is something almost pensive about this #1780s gown, or am I just being an old romantic? #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡
Three luminous women drift in a dense forest of vertical trunks, their pale, translucent bodies veiled in sheer, flowing garments that skim shoulders and hips. Two figures advance in three-quarter profile while the central woman turns to look our direction. Their hair falls in soft waves and fingers curl as if feeling the air. Below them, three black wolves emerge among the trees lifting their snouts as if to scent or warn while looking directly at us. The palette sets cool, ghost-blue flesh against rusty, bark-red and umber woods. Fine linear contours, inked like filigree, sharpen the folds and foliage. Gold touches flicker along hems and highlights, giving the scene a faint, enchanted glow. French-Swiss artist Eugène Grasset, an Art Nouveau pioneer whose language of line shaped posters, book arts, and interiors, here turns decorative mastery toward Symbolist mood. The women read as archetypes: sirens or spirits, not portraits, hovering between allure and peril. The wolves double as guardians and threats, mirroring fin-de-siècle anxieties about desire, wilderness, and women’s autonomy. The vertical trees compress space like a stage flat, while the arabesque outlines and restrained tones create a tapestry-like plane; we “read” the scene as much as we see it. Gold highlights lend a religious vibe, recalling illuminated manuscripts Grasset admired, while the figures’ translucence suggests beings of prophecy or dream. Neither narrative nor moral is fixed, so beauty, instinct, and fear travel the same path through the woods. Around 1900, Grasset was at the height of his influence as an Art Nouveau designer, illustrator, and teacher in Paris. A pioneer of decorative unity, he believed design should arise from nature’s structure as expressed in his treatise “La Plante et ses applications ornementales” from 1896. Teaching at the École Estienne, he shaped a generation of artists who carried his ideals into early modernism and the emerging Art Deco style.

to showcase the types of outfits available when Poiret first started working in fashion. A great contrast to his more progressive looks. Although this is so sweet! I still call it the Winnie-the-Pooh Hundred Acre Woods dress. #Fashionhistory #madparis
A mannequin wearing a red silk layered dress. It has a boat neckline and sheer hanging sleeves but is otherwise completely plain
Although she became the queen of the bias cut in the 1930s, Madeleine Vionnet was active for years beforehand. Her #1920s garments offer the same attention to fabric manipulation, this sheer red layered gown a showstopper for sure #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡
A photograph of a mannequin taken against a cloudy grey backdrop. The dress form is wearing an evening gown by Callot Soeurs of orange, yellow and pink silk arranged in sunset shades and embellished in gold
Another firm favourite in the form of the collective genius of Callot Soeurs, those marvellous makers of early 20th century couture. Evening gown c1907 #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡
Two photographs of the same short sleeved pink wool jersey dress with navy blue trim around the collar and in a line down the centre front. It has large navy blue Bakelite buttons also centre front. One photo shows the full length and the other a detail of the buttons and trim
The navy blue buttons and border that decorate the edges of this pink wool jersey dress almost appear to have been sketched onto the surface of the fabric in bold strokes, a #1930s fashion illustration brought to life #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡
Front view of a white dress with lace trim at the bottom of the skirt and cuffs. Black and gold embroidered bees cover the skirt and fly upwards in an asymmetrical pattern across the bodice
Back view of the white dress showing the lace trim and black and gold embroidered bees running around the hem and back of the neck
Bodice detail of the white dress showing the lace cuffs and with the black and gold embroidered bees covering the bodice
I haven’t shared Doucet’e early #1900s bee dress in a while and it is perfect bee weather so here it is. The white background highlights the unusual embroidery darting about the surface of the gown, each striped insect alighting on different parts of the dress #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡
A short white A line dress with cap sleeves and a v neck revealing the dress, by Schiaparelli, is covered with silver and gold embroidered swirls and has a red lining visible at the collar and inside skirt
Another garment that features in the Paul Poiret: Fashion is a Feast exhibition is this new to me early #1950s #Schiaparelli, included to demonstrate Poiret’s influence on future design. This has the sculptural quality of a ceramic, an ornament of style #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡
Front view of a long black and white chiffon dress with short sleeves and V neck. The dress is covered with white stylised embroidered embellishment
I am having fashion exhibition FOMO, seeing the images of the new exhibition Paul Poiret: Fashion is a Feast on now in Paris. This c1910 evening dress just one of those that charts his avant garde design and early c20th change #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡
A pale pink patterned silk gown enveloping the figure beneath with a puffed high low hem
A loose fitting rose pink silk damask gown fastening centre front with elbow length sleeves and broad panier style hips
I wonder if Yves Saint Laurent had in mind the voluminous c18th robe de volante in mind when he designed this puff ball hemmed gown in 1960? Whilst worn in different contexts there is something déshabillé about them both, in metres of cloth. YSL #madparis robe #palaisgalliera #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

Three quarter view of a long green dress with swirling shades and leaf like patterns
Bodice detail of the green swirled dress showing a beaded and sequinned panel centre front
I don’t quite know how best to describe this fabric. It looks as though it had grown out of a tree trunk, gnarly swirls of changing, bark-like shades fashioned into human form. It is a c1890 wood nymph, able to step into a woodland and disappear from view #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡
Long black dress consisting of a narrow under dress topped with a voluminous sheer overdress with full skirt and billowing sleeves
I have always loved the shifting boundaries of this 1935 #Vionnet dress. The sleek black column beneath is overlaid with a sheer, ghostly silhouette, both hiding and revealing #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡
Draped evening coat of silver lamé with decorative stitching centre front and an integral necktie
Different layers of top stitch and chain stitch have been deployed to embellish the surface of glistening silver lamé here. Like wave dappled sand as the tide retreats, it leaves shining ripples. Lanvin, 1930 #madparis #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

パリ装飾美術館のイリス・ヴァン・ヘルペン展へ。
彼女はファッションデザイナーとかクチュリエというよりは造形家なのだよなと。
2012年くらいまでの作品はより実験色が強く、挑戦的で勢いがある
年に二回何か出さなきゃいけないモード界のシステムがこの才能を潰しませんように
写真たくさんupしたいので時間ある時に返信でぼちぼち繋げていきます

Il a donc jeté un coup d’œil à 100% de mes pantalons Oren-passage chez le couturier avant de créer ce costume dont la veste est sublime.
