Lavishly illustrated with b/w Erte drawings. 'The Russian-born, Paris-based artist Erté (Romain de Tirtoff) is best known for his incomparably styled fashion and theater designs of the 1910s and 1920s. From 1915 to 1936 Erté was associated with Harper's Bazar, furnishing readers with fashion designs, cover art, and word-pictures of the European fashion scenes. This book is a selection of Erté's remarkable work for Harper's Bazar, including 310 of his line drawings and 8 full-color images as well as selections from his letters for the magazine. Of these drawings, 12 have been reproduced directly from the original pen drawings at original size for this edition. In the illustrations, Erté shows gowns, coats, pajamas, hats, and accessories of all sorts and for each season. Tassels, fur muffs, capes, hair stylings, and other extravagant flourishes are second nature to Erté in these designs. The drawings themselves are striking evocations of the "temptress" type of feminine allure, and are works of art in their own right whose exotic styles are inseparable from the style of the fashions they depict. The original Harper's captions have been reprinted with each illustration. This selection from Erté's work has been made by Stella Blum, Curator of the Metropolitan Museum's Costume Institute, who has chosen the illustrations both for their interest as art and for their importance in the development of fashion. Copies of Harper's Bazar from the years of Erté's great work are very hard to find today, and students of fashion, fashion illustration, and others interested in Erté will find this a most welcome collection.'

A luxuriously-bound study of Russian-born French artist, fashion designer, and set designer Romain de Tirtoff (1892-1990), popularly known by the pseudonym Erté (from the French pronunciation of his initials). Richly illustrated throughout with a series of reproductions of the artist's works, this volume includes an accompanying essay by French critic and literary theorist Roland Barthes, followed by an extract from Erté's memoirs. The text was published in a series of six languages, Italian, English, French, Spanish, German, and Russian. Widely considered 'The Father of Art Deco', Erté's most famous art deco costume creations were worn by international stars of the stage and screen such as Marion Davies, Lillian Gish, and Irène Bordoni. Yet, Erté is particularly remembered for his artistic contributions to print media, having contributed over 200 covers for Harper's Bazaar fashion magazine in his signature art deco style, between 1915 and 1937. His work has since been described as a major factor in the magazine's rise in popularity, to the extent that the magazine's owner and publisher William Randolph Hearst is said to have once commented "what would Harper's Bazaar have been if it wasn't for Erté?" (Jon Astbury for Dezeen, 2025). The Alphabet and Numeral Suites, featured in this book, reportedly came from his childhood, with the artist explaining in an interview for The New York Times 'When I was learning to write, I thought of it as a kind of drawing. It amused me to make the letters in fancy ways, and I guess I came to think of the human body as a pliable part of a design in Maria Petitpa's ballet class' (Flora Lewis for The New York Times, 1976).
