"La Gazette du Bon Ton "Art, Goût, Beauté" is a fashion magazine founded in Paris in 1912 by Lucien Vogel. It appeared until 1925, with an interruption from 1916 to 1920, i.e. 69 issues. It included 573 stencil-colored plates and 148 sketches representing designer models. Each booklet constitutes a luxury album, printed on beautiful Cochin paper, a completely new character at the time. Many artists collaborated on it: Guy Arnoux, Léon Bakst, George. Barbier, Benito, Pierre Brissaud, Boutet de Monvel, Umberto Brunelleschi, Chas Laborde, Jean-Gabriel Domergue, Raoul Dufy, Édouard Halouze, Alexandre Iacovleff, Jean Emile Laboureur, Georges Lepape, Charles Loupot, Charles Martin, André-Edouard Marty… These artists, most of whom were unknown when Lucien Vogel called on them, will impose a new image of women. They will keep a common aesthetic base from their collaboration with this magazine and will exhibit their works under the name of Collaborators of the Gazette du bon ton. The boards represent the dresses of the designers of the time: Lanvin, Doeuillet, Paquin, Poiret, Worth, Vionnet, Doucet. Some plates do not feature any real model, but only the illustrator's idea of the fashion of the day. […] The birth of the Gazette du bon ton is an event in the history of fashion publishing. It is the first magazine which combines aesthetic concerns, demands for beauty and plastic unity." (Wikipedia Sources).
