There is a part of you I can't quite forget - where my memories grow flowers and the past outreaches my gardens gate; where the words I rather forget become a book of regret.

Illustrating Fashion in 1920s Paris: The Work of Georges Barbier
The flamboyant and fashionable Georges Barbier is most noted for his wonderful Art Deco illustrations of the fashions of the 1920s.
Shown Above: 1.) "Warrior" 2.) "Les Marionnettes" 3.) "Evening" 4.) "Farewell" 5.) "Incantation" 6.) "The Tango"
Barbier created a new fusion between fashion and art illustration with his beautiful pictures depicting willowy women in fashionable dresses, and his pictures became important depictions of fashion and life in the 1920s. 
Born in 1882, Barbier lived in Paris from 1908 and nourished his love of classical antiquity by exploring the collections in the Louvre. His fascination with the ancient artefacts, especially the figures depicted on Greek vases, greatly influenced his work and depiction of women and the human body.

In Paris, he put on his first show in 1911. It was a great success and it led to Barbier creating and leading a group with artists from the Ecole des Beaux Arts, which was affectionately nicknamed 'The Knights of the Bracelet' by Vogue. Other members of the Knights of the Bracelet included leading fashion illustrators and artists such as Georges Lepape and Paul Irebe, who were masters in their own right at producing bold fashion illustrations that were unlike any that had been seen before. The bold stylised designs helped create the emerging Art Deco aesthetic, presenting fashion in a new and exciting way.

The stunning and iconic figures that Barbier depicted epitomised the 1920s fashion ideal and his reputation soon reached across the globe, where he began to produce advertising artwork for brands such as Cartier and Elizabeth Arden. Alongside his artworks, he also produced essays on fashion and designed theatre costumes, jewellery and fans. On his early death at the age of 50 in 1932, he had become one of the most well-known and highly regarded artists of the Art Deco era.
