It originally appeared in a French fashion magazine that catered to the most stylish women in Paris. It is NOT a recent reproduction print. It was illustrated by Pierre Mourgue (1890-1969)who was a well acclaimed fashion illustrator who portrayed a sense of demure elegance and subtlety in his works. He worked for the influential Gazette du Bon Ton in the 1920s and later for French Vogue, Le Femme Chic and Femina magazines. He illustrated numerous front covers to these magazines and worked with Dior, Balmain, Balenciaga, Givenchy and the leading department stores in Paris. This design is by the iconic Balenciaga. It exudes a wonderful sense of elegance and flair with its tiered bouffant style evening dress cinched at the waist with a slender bodice and a long dramatic ribbon knotted tie. Note the painterly illustration done in soft rich neutral and champagne tones. Perfect for today's fashionista or vintage fashion collector. This is a RARE image in excellent condition measuring 8.25 x 11 inches. comes matted in a white 16 x 20 custom mat that works with a standards size frame. less
