Hand-colored stencil print from La Gazette du Bon Ton, No. 2 Plate 13, 1921. Outfits for the bride (creatively of the future) and maid of honor, by Paul Poiret. A fitting artistic collaboration of the thaetrical and forward-looking impulses of both renowned designer Poiret and artist Drian. All the old rules are being broken; even the feet are spontaneously cropped in the astonishing new couture-art.
