EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from 1924 showcases a selection of exquisite coats with an Oriental feel, designed by the renowned French fashion house, Coudurier. The first coat featured is a wrap-over style with funnel sleeves, boasting a stand-collar, cuffs, and skirt, all encircled in luxurious white fur. The Oriental influence is evident in the vibrant, chinoiserie-inspired fabrics adorning the garment. The second coat showcases a hood and tassels, further emphasizing the Eastern aesthetic. The hood, a common feature in traditional Chinese clothing, adds a touch of mystery and allure to the design. The tassels, often used as decorative elements in Oriental textiles, add a playful and exotic touch. These coats, with their Oriental-inspired details, represent the height of fashion in the 1920s. The chinoiserie trend, which drew inspiration from Chinese and Japanese art and culture, was popular during this time, and these coats are prime examples of the trend's influence on Western fashion. The coats' rich colors and intricate patterns add to their allure, making them stand out in any crowd. The stand-collar on the first coat, with its rounded shape and fur trim, adds a regal and sophisticated touch. The hood on the second coat, combined with the tassels, gives the wearer a sense of mystery and adventure. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of Oriental-inspired fashion and the influence of Eastern cultures on Western design. The coats, with their vibrant colors and intricate details, continue to captivate and inspire fashion enthusiasts to this day.
