In the cultural capital of the world, the new feminine ideals of freedom and movement were expressed in the unprecedented designs of Voinnet, Alix, le Callot, Molyneux, Paquin, Chanel, and Schiaparelli- designs as aesthetically glorious as they were socially significant. Irving Penn's masterful photographs are accompanied by an introduction and captions by Diana Vreeland, who discusses the evolving panorama - the Ballet-Russes in Paris in 1909, the First World War and the entry of women into factories and offices, the Jazz Age, the elegance and the ennui of the 1930s. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Irving Penn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58140027912574,"sku":null,"price":61.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/files\/inventive-paris-clothes-irving-penn-diana-vreeland-cover.heic?v=1790856555","url":"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/en-us\/products\/inventive-paris-clothes-1909-1939","provider":"Setanta Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
