Avant le bain is a 1924 by Madeleine & Madeleine, depicting Belt, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a sleek, striped dress with bold black-and-white lines. She’s holding a small bag and wears a red hat with a wide brim. Her outfit has a red belt tied in a bow, and she’s standing against a plain background. The title *Avant le bain* means “before the bath,” but the drawing doesn’t show water or a tub. Instead, it focuses on the sharp, modern lines of her clothes. Check out cross-hatching to see how artists create shading with lines.
These artists left a small but striking set of 1924 drawings and designs that mix fashion and line.
