I made a drawing for my DND character. The campaign is set in the 1920s and I wanted to use La Garçonne style.

La Garçonne (1936)

[resplendentoutfit]

La Garçonne – "The Tomboy" look of the 1920s

La Garçonne fashion was inspired by a 1922 novel of the same name, where the protagonist is an independent young woman who leaves home to find her way in the world. Because women's view of themselves began to undergo rapid change after the war, the world of western fashion changed along with this new-found liberation.

This look provoked adjectives such as ‘slender’, ‘svelte’ and ‘sleek’ on fashion magazine pages. The required silhouette was indeed boyish: trousers, masculine suit jackets, and ties at its extreme and dropped waists and higher hemlines at its most moderate. Newsboy caps, varsity style sweaters, and the famous bob haircut were also popular among the more daring of women. And, of course, cigarette smoking by women became synonymous with liberation.

"La mode se démode, le style jamais."

Coco Chanel, auteure de cette citation est née le 19 août 1883. Prénommée Gabrielle, elle rêve de music-hall dans sa jeunesse, avant de mettre à profit ses connaissances en matière de couture. En confectionnant ses propres chapeaux et des tenues très originales pour l'époque, elle attire vite l'attention. Simples mais sophistiquées, ses réalisations plaisent à une riche clientèle qui se presse, dès les années 1910, dans les boutiques parisiennes que possède notre créatrice de mode. Sa grande idée est de libérer la femme, en lui fabriquant notamment des habits moins étriqués. Toujours à l'avant garde, elle popularise la coupe de cheveux "à la garçonne" et lance des tendances intemporelles comme la marinière ou la célèbre petite robe noire en 1926. Elle est aussi la première couturière à proposer à la vente ses propres parfums. Le N°5 est aujourd'hui encore le symbole incontesté du chic à la française...

Je vais poursuivre dans les vieilles photos. Ici, des vestiges du siècle précédent... Des Années Folles aux années 30 en Auvergne !

1925 - Vichel. Les dames sont de sortie

1926 - Ceyrat : ma grand-mère maternelle (à droite) et , je pense, sa cousine

1932 - Château-sur-Cher. Ma grand-mère et ma mère, encore toute petite.

1933 - Clermont-Ferrand (Les Bughes). Peut-être une des usines Michelin en arrière-plan ?

1934 - Domérat. Coupe à la garçonne.

The one tough thing with the La garçonne show is that Antoine's name can't really be Antoine. 'cause that's his brother name. It can't be Louise because wearing men's clothes in the 1920's is not doable for women. It can't be Gisèle for the same reasons. And it was more of a drag persona. But since he's using his brother's Id papers, he'd have to go by Antoine. Tho there are people who had a name on their papers and went by a different name because another person in the same family already had it. But since there are no other names to use in canon, I gotta use Antoine.

SPFW N58 :: Sóbrio, mas nada óbvio para a À La Garçonne

Por Arlindo Grund e Lari Mariano Se combinar preto e branco te parece sóbrio demais, o desfile da À La Garçonne é um claro convite a repensar o conceito: o claro flerte com o street style reaparece e com muita modernidade. Conjuntos trazendo o xadrez, sobretudos mais abertos e com movimento, toques de uma alfaiataria que só precisa ser. Maxi bolsas e até paetês com brilho compuseram os olhares…

Le temps des cathédrales

On my birthday (August 3rd), I went to see Notre-Dame-de-Paris with my mom and sister at la Place des arts. As someone who's been listening to it since 1998 (and read the novel later), it truly felt like I've missed out on seeing it live, especially since I saw the biggest France/Québec musicals from the early 2000s when they came out (namely, Roméo et Juliette, Don Juan and Dracula), as well as Starmania (not when it came out, obviously). Even though the current Notre-Dame-de-Paris show isn't with the original cast (except for Daniel Lavoie!), it was really amazing.

Of course, me being me, I did a themed outfit.
