Asia Chic
The Influence of Japanese and Chinese Textiles on the Fashions of the Roaring Twenties
Estelle Nikles van OsseltPostscript summary
Exploring the influence of Asian style, patterns, colour and textiles on European fashion and the changing culture of the 1920s, this catalogue accompanied an exhibition at the Baur Museum in Geneva. Its wealth of images include drawings by Parisienne fashion designers and photographs of Eastern fabrics, kimonos in particular, whose flowing style was a far cry from the restrictive corsets Western women had previously worn. Text in English and French.
