Ball of the Little White Beds
1922
George Barbier captures the essence of 1920s Parisian nightlife in this stunning poster for the 'Bal des Petits Lits Blancs,' a famous charity gala. The central figure, dripping in pearls and topped with a massive blue feather headdress, is the ultimate Art Deco icon of the 'flapper' era. But this wasn't just about fashion; the text reveals a massive incentive for attendees—a chance to win a Torpedo Belanger car worth 22,000 francs! Held at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées, this event proves that high society has always loved a good raffle for a good cause.
