For Spring-Summer 2022, Laurence Bossion takes us to Deauville in the 20s and 30s.
The sea air whips our cheeks and intoxicates us. On the beach, bodies have freed themselves from the shackles of corsets and all constraints. On the sand, bobs, caps and stripes in classic shades of blue, white and red. Further out, the tones echo those of beach toys and their graphic or playful shapes.
Light silhouettes appear on the boards, dressed in loose, supple pants and flowing tops, their capelines wide and uncluttered. They dance with the wind. Women live their lives outdoors, open to leisure activities and sports, enjoying sea bathing, fresh air and swimming.
At sunset, chic soirées are organized, with black rocailles beads and ivory and gold reflections taking pride of place on the headdresses of these new sirens. Their sublimated beauty illuminates the faces of these newly liberated women.
