Neu -European fashion was profoundly influenced in the early decades of the 20th century by the style, textiles, patterns and color combinations of Asian clothing. The discovery of the kimono, in particular, with its loose cut, fluid lines and broad range of decorations, captivated the great couturiers of the period. It enabled adventurous women in the Roaring Twenties to cast out their corsets and social straightjackets, while offering a new, daring kind of elegance with exotic overtones. 312 pp. Englisch.

Exploring the influence of Asian style, patterns, colour and textiles on European fashion and the changing culture of the 1920s, this catalogue accompanied an exhibition at the Baur Museum in Geneva. Its wealth of images include drawings by Parisienne fashion designers and photographs of Eastern fabrics, kimonos in particular, whose flowing style was a far cry from the restrictive corsets Western women had previously worn.

Glossary appears on 331-333. 334 pages. Catalogue of an exhibition held in Geneva at Fondation Baur, Musée des Arts d'Extreme-Orient from November 12, 2015 to February 16, 2016. With texts by Pascale Lepeu and Song Haiyang. "The nineteenth and twentieth centuries saw the emergence of collections of "curios", so named because they stimulated curiosity. Exotic objects from China and Japan -- embellished with fanciful decorations and made from a variety of materials, many of which were little known in Europe -- enthralled the West. They kindled a fad for Asia, beguiled art lovers, and exerted a profound influence on the graphic arts in Europe. This fascinating period also inspired lifelong callings: that of the collector in Alfred Bauer (1865-1951); and, in Alfred Cartier (1841-1925) and his three sons, Louis (1875-1942), Pierre (1878-1964), and Jacques (1884-1941), that of the creator. Whereas Cartier's Asian-influenced pieces are widely admired, their historical and cultural context is less known. Thus was born the idea of exhibiting Cartier's Asia-inspired innovations alongside masterworks from the collections of the Baur Foundation, Museum of Fine Art. As the book unfolds, an "Asia Imagined" gradually takes shape. Diamond-encrusted pagodas and pavilions, literati engrossed beneath starry skies, pearly moonlit scenes, sparkling phoenixes, jade dragons, and multi-coloured, cherry-blossom-like gems depict an imaginary land. This unprecedented juxtaposition of exquisite objects from the Baur Collections -- imperial porcelains, lacquerware works sprinkled with precious metals, embroidered silks, jades, enamels, netsukes, sword fittings, and Japanese prints -- with the shimmering beauty of the creations of Maison Cartier conjures a rare sense of the magic an marvels of ancient China and Japan.".
