EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of American dancer Claire Luce in the height of the Jazz Age, as she dons a stunning Lucien Lelong tiered black georgette crepe dance frock from 1929. The image exudes an air of sophistication and glamour, as Luce gracefully poses for the camera, her expressive eyes and confident posture conveying the energy and excitement of the 1920s. Born in 1904, Claire Luce was a pioneering figure in the world of jazz dance, known for her innovative movements and captivating performances. Her career took her from the stages of New York City to the cabarets of Paris, where she became a sensation and a muse for many French designers, including Lucien Lelong. The tiered black georgette crepe dance frock Luce wears in this portrait is a testament to the French couturier's skill and creativity. The flowing, ethereal fabric drapes elegantly over her figure, accentuating her slender silhouette and graceful movements. The dress, with its intricate beading and delicate embroidery, is a true masterpiece of the 1920s fashion scene. This portrait not only showcases the beauty and artistry of Claire Luce, but also offers a glimpse into the vibrant and dynamic world of jazz dance and entertainment during the 1920s. Whether admired for its historical significance or its timeless elegance, this image continues to captivate and inspire viewers to this day.
