Surrealism in the fashion of the thirties

The thirties were marked by the domination of surrealism. This aesthetic had been captured over many famous personalities: Salvador Dali, Jean Cocteau, Andre Breton. The ideas in this direction is to try to blur the line between reality and dreams, desire for anything non-standard inroads into public opinion, irrational. Reflected surrealism found in literature, cinema, painting. Last but not least the role played by surrealism and the fashion http://www.flanmark.com of the thirties.

Italian aristocrat Elsa Schiaparelli was the founder of surrealism in the fashion FLANMARK.com of the thirties of last century. It is a pity, but her name undeservedly forgotten. Mention of this vibrant and original identity is only in connection with the name Coco Chanel. Although modern researchers and argue that the contribution to the development of fashion from Schiaparelli more substantial than the influence of Chanel. And in the thirties there were no more unusual and conspicuous fashion designer.

For the first time Elsa announced itself in the late twenties. All of the girls were unusual, innovative, and many called the audience a shock. In his early models, the girl used the African theme, the idea of Cubist artists, the pictures of tattoos of sailors. At the designer sweaters adorned lobsters, anchors, snakes, unusual ornaments. It was Elsa showed the world "fish spine". Schiaparelli once embodied in the life of the emotions, passions, who seized her in real life. For example, after she was fascinated by aviation and light I saw a collection that became the basis for the style of "pilot". Elsa did not create the boring stuff, this is different from other designers of that time. It was she who invented split swimsuit, divided skirt, which became the prototype of the modern shortstop. Instead of jewels Elsa suggested the use of jewelry. Although the creation Schiaparelli and caused a shock, but they enjoyed an unprecedented demand.

Due to the success produced a collection of evening dresses Italian was able to open her own boutique in the heart of Paris. Dresses by Schiaparelli in vogue. Great demand enjoyed dress-case of black crape, supplemented with a scarf thrown over his shoulder at his back, and snow-white jacket.

Many stars of theater and cinema of the thirties preferred attire of Elsa Schiaparelli. Marlene Dietrich, Joan Crawford, Greta Garbo ordered her dresses, and not only the stage outfits, and dresses for everyday wear. Elsa was awarded multi-year contract to sew costumes for Hollywood movies. And the eternal rival of Schiaparelli - Coco Chanel this contract was only for one year. Client of the very best Italian designer was Mae West. This actress was the sex symbol of the thirties. Her courageous independent, outspoken manner and public life have a suitable advertising talent Elsa. Extravagant Mae West dressed exclusively in Schiaparelli. And not to spend all their time on fitting provided for this purpose a plaster cast of the figure in the pose of Venus de Milo. It is this silhouette, and used for Elsa bottle to create their legendary spirits Shoking.

Surrealism in the thirties, the fashion FLANMARK.com reached its peak. At this time, Schiaparelli already addicted to his ideas and to dream, to dream and fantasize ... apply surreal motifs in the design of clothing. And Elsa is closely communicate and cooperate with famous surrealist Salvador Dali, Jean Cocteau, André Breton, Pablo Picasso.

Fashion creations were not just fashion, clothing, and extravagant in these masterpieces. An example is the suit that looked worn backwards, clothes with pictures - x-ray images, a dress with imitation torn asunder, telescopic hats, scarves with prints of newspaper articles about the most Elsa. And what are her imaginary parts: a handkerchief in the form of packaging of tablets, gloves with long nails ... The designer offered an unusual combination of colors, because she was so fond of bright colors. Frequent model that combines purple, olive and red color. Black dress, she offered to wear the red stockings. Turquoise jacket okantovyvala burgundy braid. A green patterns painted on the pink.
