La Flamme is a 1924 by Madeleine & Madeleine, depicting Bead, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman from behind, wearing a long black dress with white sleeves. The dress has bright red embroidery and tiny beads or pearls along the edges. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s holding a white fan in one hand. The sketch looks like it was made quickly, with bold lines and simple shapes. The artist wrote notes in French around the edges, describing the outfit. Next, look up embroidery to see how artists and designers use stitching like this in fashion.
These artists left a small but striking set of 1924 drawings and designs that mix fashion and line.
