JEAN PATOU - Lot 61

JEAN PATOU Styles from the 1950 & 1951 Collections; the fashion designer’s sister and her husband—successors to the Patou house—are pictured together. 6 photos, vintage silver gelatin prints (unmarked on the back) each mounted on a mat, with the year annotated on each matboard. 6 x 6 cm (each image); 24 x 18 cm (each mat). Some photos are cropped (for publication). Note: These six photographs showcase the elegance of the Jean Patou fashion house at the turn of the 1950s, which was continued by the couturier’s family after his passing. Featuring models from the collections and portraits of the house’s successors, this collection offers a valuable glimpse into the continuity of a legendary name in Parisian haute couture.
