EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a woman in a stunning waistcoat made of pekine velvet, layered over a printed sheath dress. The year is 1912, and the fashion illustration by Fernand Simeon showcases the elegance and sophistication of the Belle Époque era. The woman stands gracefully with her parasol in hand, exuding an air of timeless chic. The intricate details of this etching are brought to life through hand coloring using the pochoir stencil technique. The woman's hat adorned with feathers adds a touch of glamour to her ensemble. In the background, we catch a glimpse of a classic car, highlighting the changing times as automobiles became more prevalent. The image also hints at social dynamics as we see a servant dressed in livery attending to the lady's needs. This juxtaposition reflects both luxury and societal norms during that period. Simeon's illustration originally appeared in Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, which was renowned for its exquisite fashion plates. This particular piece exemplifies Art Deco influences and Orientalism trends popularized by Ballets Russes costumes. Transport yourself back to early 20th century Paris with this enchanting print that beautifully encapsulates the essence of fashion during that time.
