Paul Poiret

I should be ashamed of myself just saying this,  but I didn’t know who Paul Poiret was till a few days ago. And I’m sayng this because this fashion designer is one of the most important fashion designers of the twentieth-century and his looks are as relevant today as they were almost 100 years ago or when he first created them. I’m taking a  course to became a personal stylist and one of the first tasks they asked me to do have been to research the key collections of some fashion designers such as Paul Poiret, Coco Chanel, Jeanne Lanvin etc… I can only say how much I’m learning and enjoying  just by looking at the pictures from their collections.
Vergüenza me debería dar siquiera mencionar que hasta hace unos días no sabia quien era Paul Poiret. Digo esto porque este modista francés es uno de los mas importantes del siglo XX. Sus diseños son igual de relevantes e influyentes en pleno siglo XXI como lo fueron hace mas de cien años cuando el empezó. Estoy haciendo un curso de estilismo con la idea de llegar a ser estilista  y una de las primeras lecciones ha sido estudiar con detalle la trayectoria de modistas de la talla de Poiret, Coco Chanel, Jeanne Lanvin etc… Solo puedo decir que estoy disfrutando y aprendiendo muchísimo tan solo viendo fotos de sus colecciones.
