Galeries Lafayette, Paris

Art Deco posters were a popular form of advertising in the 1920s and 1930s, and the Galeries Lafayette, a luxury department store in Paris, commissioned several art deco posters to promote its products and events. These posters typically featured bold, geometric designs and bright, vibrant colors, and were often used to advertise fashion shows, exhibitions, and other events at the store. One famous example is "La Dame aux Camelias," designed by the French artist Paul Colin in 1925. This poster features a stylized image of a woman wearing a camelias flower in her hair, surrounded by geometric shapes and patterns.
