EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a stunning costume design from the early 20th century, featuring a tunic dress by the renowned French fashion house, Paquin. The intricately designed ensemble, dating back to 1914, is a feast for the eyes with its rich history and exquisite details. The dress itself is a masterpiece of drapery, with a tango skirt that boasts a front split and an elegant train. The translucent flared tunic, adorned with pearls, adds a touch of sophistication and glamour. The pearl-embellished corsage, nestled at the neckline, adds an air of coy allure. The costume is completed with a toque or turban, trimmed with delicate feathers, adding a playful and whimsical touch to the overall design. The shell motif, evident in the skirt's scalloped edges and the toque's feather trim, adds a nod to the natural world and the Art Deco movement of the time. The backdrop of the print further enhances the costume's beauty, with the shell-adorned grotto and stalagmites creating a dreamlike atmosphere. The setting, reminiscent of a serene and mystical underwater world, adds to the historical and romantic feel of the image. This Paquin costume design, with its draped tunic, flared skirt, and pearl and feather adornments, is a testament to the artistry and creativity of fashion design during the early 1900s. The image captures the essence of an evening of elegance and enchantment, transporting us back in time to a bygone era.
