La Modiste by Toulouse-Lautrec

This is Henri Toulouse-Lautrec’s La Modiste, 1900. She is Mlle. Renée Vert (Mme. Le Murgouin) and she had a shop in Montmartre. No idea if this will be in the MoMA Museum Toulouse-Lautrec exhibition opening on July 26 in NYC but her hair was Belle Epoque, trending for 2014.

For more Toulouse-Lautrec, Belle Epoque and Art Nouveau inspiration, scroll down this blog, all the way down Page One, and to Page Two. From the book, Toulouse-Lautrec, with text by Douglas Cooper, Thames & Hudson, published in 1955, a great resource with 55 reproductions in full color and 63 illustrations in monochrome.

The Belle Epoque, the Art Nouveau era will trend with the Toulouse-Lautrec exhibition at MoMA Museum in NYC, opening July 26. Be inspired … And scroll down to the second page, where there’s more, including the key Lautrec background to know.

Art Nouveau drawings and design in the landmark Style Book published in1905,  Mucha’s Figures Decoratives are by one of the most-famous decorative artists in Paris at the turn of the century, Alphonse Maria Mucha (1860-1939.)  He loved long hair, was obsessed with curves coiling around idealized women which, with his Sarah Bernhardt posters, made him famous then, and to this day.   For the book on Amazon, click (but know the front cover color is warmer on my copy!)

Illustrations: Charles Dana Gibson

With MoMA’s Toulouse Lautrec exhibition (July 26-March 1, 2015) everything Belle Epoque will inspire fashion – and hair.  It’s one step from Lautrec’s Paris during the era to the American hair of the era, which was piled deliciously on top of the head. Watch this updo trend.  The hair in these illustrations by American artist, Charles Dana Gibson (1867-1944) tell the story. These are his Gibson Girls.  The man is a café artist in Paris.  “The Gibson Girl and Her America” is a book worth checking out, available on Amazon, click
