EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a young woman in an elegant and enchanting dancing outfit, complete with a flowing cape, as she gracefully poses among a backdrop of cherry blossom trees. The handcoloured pochoir (stencil) etching, created by Gerda Wegener for Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes in Paris in 1914, transports us back to the Belle Époque and Art Deco eras. The young woman's dress, adorned with intricate patterns and delicate floral motifs, exudes an air of sophistication and charm. Her expressive posture and the gentle breeze that billows her cape add a sense of dynamic energy to the scene. The orientalist influences of the time are evident in the setting, with the cherry blossom trees and the ethereal quality of the light. This outfit, with its exotic and alluring design, would have been the height of fashion for young women aged 16 to 18 during this period. The Ballets Russes, known for their innovative and avant-garde productions, were also influential in popularizing such costumes. Parisians embraced this chic and refined style, making it a must-have for any discerning fashionista. This beautiful and intricately detailed etching is a testament to the artistry and creativity of the time, and serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of the Belle Époque and Art Deco eras.
