This fashion plate, Créations Jenny - L'Envolée, was made in 1926 by G-P. Joumard. It's got these sleek, elongated figures with that art deco vibe, all sharp angles and modern chic. Looking at this, I'm picturing Joumard sketching away in some Parisian atelier, trying to capture the spirit of the time. There's something so playful about the way the lines dance and swoop, like the artist is almost composing a song with shapes and colors. And those colors, soft pastels and muted earth tones, it makes me feel like I'm stepping back in time into a smoky jazz club. It's funny how these old fashion plates were the Instagram of their day, inspiring designers and fashionistas alike. I wonder if Joumard ever imagined that his work would still be inspiring people almost a century later? It makes you think about how we're all just part of this big, beautiful conversation, influencing each other across time and space.
