Wide skirts were the fashion for 1916 and perhaps no designer provided a more romanticized, feminine version of the style than #Lucile. This dinner dress was aptly named #Happiness and is in the collection of @philamuseum. Another example exists in the #KyotoCostumeInstitute as well (swipe left). #1916fashion #1910sfashion #hautecouture #fashion #fashionhistory #theartofdress #artofdress This 1916 day dress by #JeanneLanvin is an early example of a style of that would become the designer's signature. In the 20s, Lanvin's name would become synonymous with the "robe de style, " a style of dress with panniered hips that referenced 18th century fashion. @philamuseum #1916fashion #1910sfashion #hautecouture #fashion #fashionhistory #theartofdress #artofdress Wedding dress by #Lucile #LadyDuffGordon, 1916. @chicagomuseum: "Worn by Katherine Keith at her marriage to David Adler on June 1, 1916." #1916fashion #1910sfashion #hautecouture #fashion #fashionhistory #theartofdress #artofdress Portrait of a Woman by #AmedeoModigliani, 1917-1918, @clevelandmuseumofart. #1917fashion #1910sfashion #art #artlover #iheartart Evening coat by #PaulPoiret, 1917. @metcostumeinstitute: "This is one of the few ready-to-wear coats that materialized after Poiret authorized specific designs to be licensed and produced in America. This project was planned in 1917, but was never fully executed due to restrictions placed on his travel to the United States during wartime. His design aesthetic translates easily with the simple Greco-Roman drapery and sleeve details." #1917fashion #1910sfashion #theartofdress #artofdress #fashion #fashionhistory The year is 1917.
