Costume Représentant Parties Du Monde, Bal Louis XIV 1923

This striking photograph, "Costume Représentant Parties Du Monde, Bal Louis XIV" (1923), by French artist Valentine Hugo (1887-1968) depicts a model wearing a flowing, white costume. The design of the costume, featuring geometric shapes and stylized motifs, evokes a sense of both historical grandeur and mystical symbolism. Hugo's work often explored themes of fashion and costume, and this image captures the essence of the artistic and theatrical movements of the early 20th century.
