L'éclat is a 1924 by Madeleine & Madeleine, depicting Crystal, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This image depicts a drawing of a woman wearing a long, flowing coat with a white fur collar and a green dress underneath. The coat is adorned with intricate silver embroidery, and the woman's hair is styled in an updo. She is wearing high heels and has her hands clasped in front of her. The background of the image is a light yellow color, and there are some handwritten notes in French at the bottom of the page. A small piece of fabric is attached to the top-left corner of the image, which appears to be a swatch of the same green material used in the dress. The level of detail in the drawing suggests that it may be a fashion illustration or design concept. To learn more about the artists who created this piece, you can look up Madeleine & Madeleine.
These artists left a small but striking set of 1924 drawings and designs that mix fashion and line.
