EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph depicts a woman in an elaborate dandy, or le chicard, costume from the 1920s. The image, hand-colored using pochoir stencil techniques, showcases the woman donning an extravagant ensemble that was popular during the Jazz Age. The woman's outfit includes a red shirt with a high collar, fitted pants, and a black waistcoat adorned with gold buttons. She wears gloves and boots, and her legs are adorned with spurs. Her most striking features are her plumed hat and false nose, both essential elements of the dandy costume. The dandy, or le chicard, was a fashion trend that originated in the 18th century and gained popularity in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The term referred to a man, or in this case, a woman, who took great pride in their appearance and followed the latest fashion trends. The dandy's outfit was characterized by its extravagance, with an emphasis on bright colors, bold patterns, and ornate accessories. This woman's costume is a testament to the flamboyant and theatrical nature of the dandy trend during the 1920s. The use of pochoir stencil hand-coloring adds an additional layer of detail and vibrancy to the image, making it a true work of art. The overall effect is one of glamour, sophistication, and a touch of whimsy, making it an ideal addition to any collection of vintage fashion or 1920s-themed decor. This image is a rare and beautiful example of the dandy trend in women's fashion during the Jazz Age. Its intricate details, bold colors, and hand-colored pochoir techniques make it a true masterpiece of historical fashion.
