Paris-New York, regards croisés sur la mode (1890-1973)

from IFM · host Institut Français de la Mode

"I like to dress Americans, they have faith, figures and francs" (Charles-Frederick Worth, 1895). Emilie Hammen (doctorante IFM) raconte les grandes dates de l'histoire des relations transatlantiques dans la mode. Depuis l'époque du Gilded Age aux États-Unis (1865- 1901), la haute société de la côte Est des Etats-Unis constitue une clientèle privilégiée de la couture française. Les clientes américaines de la haute couture ont été un modèle historique de la "consommation ostentatoire" théorisée par Thorstein Veblen. Emilie Hammen retrace une histoire riche en influences réciproques, depuis Paul Poiret, considéré comme "the king of fashion" aux Etats-Unis, jusqu'à Eleanor Lambert (1903 2003), qui créa la Fashion Week de New York et organisa Le Grand Divertissement de Versailles en novembre 1973, en passant par Mainbocher, griffe de haute couture fondée à Paris en 1929 et transférée à New York en 1940... On repense à une formule de la Gazette du Bon Ton en 1913 : "la mode, seule industrie française prépondérante aux Etats-Unis".
