Art - Goût - Beauté, Feuillets de l' élégance féminine, Novembre 1928, No. 99, 9e Année, p. 24 1928

This fashion plate, "Art - Goût - Beauté," was printed in November 1928 in France, and it’s interesting to imagine the anonymous artist, maybe hunched over a drawing board, carefully rendering this vision of feminine elegance. The cool greens and delicate lines create an image of refined beauty. The artist captured not just the dress but also the aspirations and dreams associated with it. It’s like they were thinking about the texture of the fabric, the way it drapes, and how it makes the wearer feel. I can imagine them considering the work of other artists, fashion designers, and illustrators, building on a shared history of elegance and style. It reminds me that artists are always in dialogue, responding to each other across time and space, inspiring new forms of creative expression. This plate invites us to consider the artistry embedded in everyday life and how fashion can be a form of creative exploration and cultural commentary.
