EDITORS COMMENTS
250 words: Amidst the crisp, pristine landscapes of snow-covered mountains, Paris, the fashion capital of the world, raised its banner high for Winter Sports in 1927. This trio of sketches showcases the innovative and stylish skiing fashions that graced the French Alps during the Jazz Age. On the left, a design from the esteemed fashion house Drecoll, featuring a sleek, form-fitting jacket and a flowing, knee-length skirt. The jacket boasts a high collar, fur trim, and elegant, wide lapels, while the skirt is adorned with intricate pleats and a subtle, geometric pattern. Moving to the center, an outfit from Marcel Rochas, a pioneering designer known for his avant-garde creations. This ensemble includes a fitted, belted tunic top and a pair of high-waisted, tapered trousers. The tunic top is adorned with a geometric pattern, while the trousers are accented with a subtle, textured detail, perfect for both functionality and fashion. Lastly, on the right, a skating suit from Jean Patou, a brand synonymous with luxury and sophistication. The suit consists of a fitted, sleeveless top and a pair of high-waisted, wide-legged pants. The top is adorned with a delicate, floral pattern, while the pants feature a subtle, textured detail, making for a chic and stylish look on the ice. These sketches capture the essence of the 1920s, a time of excitement, glamour, and adventure. The French fashion scene embraced the allure of winter sports, merging functionality with art deco aesthetics to create fashionable and innovative looks for the high society travelers of the time. Whether on the slopes of Switzerland or the frozen lakes of a winter holiday resort, these skiing fashions were the epitome of style and sophistication in the mid-1920s.
