(after) Sonia Delaunay Rugs and Carpets
French, b. 1885
Sonia Delaunay was a 19th century French Ukrainian painter who was well known for her exploration with simultanism and her contributions to the Orphism movement. Simultanism that is, the simultaneous nature of the contrast of colors is a sub category of Orphism that Sonia and her husband, specialized in. Their abstract and Cubist art style often experimented with the perception of colors in different lightings, layerings, and mediums. Guillaume Appollinaire, a famous art critic, applauded Mrs Delaunay’s art for its, as he described, musical and poetic qualities - qualities that are by nature definitive of the Orphism movement.
Delaunay decorated a home, designed furniture, and even had a boutique decorated in her fashions. She also created some once very popular textile patterns - her style heavily inspired by Ukrainian garments and culture was lauded by many. Indeed, she was so recognized that she was one of the first women to hold a ‘retrospective exhibit’ (Tate Modern, 2021) in the Louvre in 1964.
Two of her more notable pieces are Electric Prisms from 1914 and Yellow Nude from 1908. Ignoring the need to please her audience with normative beauty aesthetics, Delaunay focuses on enrapturing her audience with her bold use of color and vivid contrasts.to

- Is Sonia Rykiel a luxury brand?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024Yes, Sonia Rykiel is a luxury brand. French fashion designer Sonia Rykiel founded her eponymous brand in 1968 in Paris to empower women to wear comfortable yet provocatively feminine clothes that were in stark contrast to the rigid tailoring that dominated womenswear. The brand redefined luxury fashion by making it more playful and accessible, such as with details like exposed seams as well as pieces offered via a mail-order company. The brand became particularly well known for high-quality knitwear like the Poor Boy sweater, a practical pullover worn by fashion icons like Audrey Hepburn. Although it has gone through multiple acquisitions since its founder passed the company to her daughter in 2007, it continues to adhere to the high quality and bold styling that have long made it popular as a luxury brand. Explore a selection of Sonia Rykiel apparel and accessories on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, Sonia Rykiel is still in business. After liquidation in 2019, the brand was bought by brothers Eric and Michael Dayan in 2020 with the mission of reviving it.
