“L'OFFICIEL has never failed in its vocation to boldly promote everything that is new” – Marie José Jalou

Founded in 1921, L'OFFICIEL de la Mode was a magazine designed for a carefully chosen clientele and aimed at buyers, clothing manufacturers, and agents throughout the world. First published in French, English, and Spanish, the value of the magazine lay in its distinctiveness and bold graphics. This book aims to collect the now one-hundred-year-old history of L'OFFICIEL. With more than one thousand illustrations, carefully selected from the magazine's invaluable archives, it offers an overview of the fashion industry and its history. From Paul Poiret to Christian Dior, it presents supermodels and It Girls, the ideal of La Parisienne, Paris as the city of myths, wellness, gender studies, trends, and many other fashion related topics. The major themes explored by the authors are those of newness, globalism, artistry, "Frenchness", women, and systems. Through magazine covers, illustrations, design, photographs, advertising campaigns, iconic accessories, portraits, and artworks, the reader will rediscover old celebrities, make comparisons between eras, and create a veritable tapestry of connections.
