Description

Thames and Hudson, 1987. Introduction by Didier Grumbach. Photographs by Jacques Boulay and Jean-Michel Tardy. Large heavy book in black cloth. In tidy condition with tidy DW.
Paul Poiret remains unchallenged as the greatest creator of haute couture in the early years of this century. Revolutionizing the feminine shape by freeing it from the corset, he offered women simple, elegent yet opulent apparel, cut from the finest fabrics. Taking his inspiration from Africa and the Orient, Poiret created dresses which reflect the gorgeous detail and rich colours of these exotic cultures. --Book jacket.
