Painting Description
"La Dernière Mode" is a collection of fashion plates created by the French illustrator Xavier Sager in 1909, known for their satirical portrayal of contemporary women's hair and hat styles. Sager, who was active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, was renowned for his postcards and illustrations that often depicted the fashionable society of the Belle Époque with a humorous twist. "La Dernière Mode" stands out as a notable work in his oeuvre due to its focus on the exaggerated and often whimsical trends in women's fashion at the turn of the century.
The plates in "La Dernière Mode" serve as a caricature of the elaborate and sometimes outlandish hairstyles and hats that were en vogue among the Parisian elite. Sager's illustrations are characterized by their vibrant colors, intricate details, and the playful exaggeration of the fashion elements they depict. Each plate typically features a single female figure, elegantly dressed and coiffed, yet with an element of the absurd in the size or shape of her hair and headwear.
"La Dernière Mode" not only provides a visual commentary on the fashion trends of the time but also offers insight into the social attitudes and cultural norms surrounding beauty and femininity in early 20th-century France. The collection is a valuable historical record of the period's fashion, as well as a testament to Sager's artistic skill and wit.
As a reflection of the era's fashion and as a work of art, "La Dernière Mode" is significant for both fashion historians and art enthusiasts. It captures the essence of an era when fashion was not just about clothing but was also a means of self-expression and social commentary. The plates remain a charming and humorous reminder of the ever-changing nature of fashion and the ways in which it is interpreted and represented in art.
