The exhibition presents a selection from the museum’s collection of photographic deposits of fashion models. More than one hundred photographs, drawings, films, and haute couture dresses provide an overview of Parisian fashion creation during the Roaring Twenties, from 1917 to 1939. These often overlooked images, crucial to the legal protection of fashion houses, offer a detailed look at the work of major couturiers, from the Callot sisters to Jeanne Paquin, from Jeanne Lanvin to Elsa Schiaparelli, including Madeleine Vionnet and Jean Patou. They allow us to trace the evolution of fashion innovation and aesthetics during this iconic period.
