Description: "Lucien Lelong" by Jacqueline Demornex, 2007. Condition like new. 141 pages. 10 x 12 x1 inches. Lucien Lelong was a central figure in French fashion from the 1920s to the 1950s, and his designs were in many ways precursors of contemporary fashion shapes and developments. Noted for his skill, exquisite workmanship, and beautiful fabrics, Lelong and his house promoted a fluid, minimalist, elegant look. Lelong blended modern design with a strong business sense and was influential for both his fashions and his entrepreneurship. He was one of the earliest designers to diversify into lingerie, accessories, and perfumes, and in 1934 he introduced a luxury ready-to-wear line. During the Occupation in World War I, he was instrumental in persuading the Germans to allow French couture houses to remain in Paris rather than moving to Berlin.
