Adolphe Mouron Cassandre

French, Ukrainian, 1901-1968
Cassandre, pseudonym of Adolphe Jean-Marie Mouron (1901 – 1968) was a French painter, commercial poster artist, and typeface designer. Born in Ukraine to French parents, Cassandre moved to Paris as a young man where he studied at the École des Beaux-Arts and at the Académie Julian. The popularity of posters as advertising afforded him an opportunity to work for a Parisian printing house. Inspired by cubism as well as surrealism, Cassandre became successful enough that with the help of partners he was able to set up his own advertising agency called Alliance Graphique, serving a wide variety of clients during the 1930s. He is perhaps best known for his posters advertising travel. His creations for the Dubonnet wine company were among the first posters designed in a manner that allowed them to be seen by occupants in moving vehicles. His posters are memorable for their innovative graphic solutions and their frequent denotations to such painters as Max Ernst and Pablo Picasso. In 1936, his works were exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City which led to commissions from Harper's Bazaar to do cover designs.

1980s Mary McFadden Beaded Silk Dickey Capelet Top with Matching Evening Bag Box

By Mary McFadden, Mary Mc Fadden

Located in San Diego, CA

Exceptional 1980s Mary McFadden hand-beaded silk dickey with its matching beaded drawstring evening bag and original box. Made in India from 100% pure silk, this extraordinary set embodies Mary McFadden’s richly embellished, globally influenced approach to evening dressing. The deep ruby-red to burgundy silk is covered with intricate tonal seed and bugle beadwork arranged in an organic scrolling pattern, with elaborate floral and foliate motifs concentrated around the neckline, shoulders and borders. The density of the hand-applied beadwork gives the piece the appearance of wearable jewelry. Although this dickie can visually read as a cropped blouse, cape or capelet, the garment is technically a dickey. It consists of beautifully beaded front and back panels joined at the shoulders and neckline while remaining completely open at the sides. This unusual construction allows the piece to transform another garment without the weight and bulk of an entirely beaded blouse. It is remarkably versatile. Wear it over a fitted black, ivory, burgundy or jewel-toned turtleneck for a dramatic layered evening look; over a silk blouse, camisole or bodysuit as a statement beaded top; or over a simple column dress to create the effect of an elaborately embellished bodice. It is particularly striking beneath an open tuxedo jacket, velvet blazer or evening coat, allowing the beaded dickey to function almost like an oversized jeweled collar. For a more contemporary look, pair it with high-waisted ivory or cream trousers and a blazer, or juxtapose the ornate 1980s beadwork with streamlined tailoring. It can therefore be styled as a dickey, bib top, beaded blouse, capelet, short cape, cropped top or statement collar, depending on how it is layered. The accompanying drawstring evening pouch is made from coordinating silk and repeats the same intricate beadwork, including densely worked botanical motifs. Twisted silk cords complete the design. Especially desirable is the survival of the original Mary McFadden box, making this an unusually complete vintage set. Condition: Brand new, unworn condition. The Mary McFadden dickey and matching evening bag are beautifully preserved. The original box is included and shows age-related wear and damage; the condition issues are confined to the box and do not affect the garments/accessories themselves.
