[mote-historie]

Georges Lepape, Denise Poiret, wife of the French fashion designer Paul Poiret, at The Thousand and Second Night Party, detail, 1911.

Paul Poiret styled his own persona after that of a sultan from “The Thousand and One Nights,” the theme of a bacchanal (“The Thousand and Second Night”) that, in 1911, the Poirets threw in the garden of their eighteenth-century mansion, on the Right Bank. Three hundred guests consumed nine hundred litres of champagne, while parrots and monkeys screeched in the shrubbery, and semi-nude black houris and jinns circulated with platters of exotic delicacies. Scheherazade’s tales had recently been translated into French by the Arabist Joseph-Charles Mardrus (whose bride, the bohemian writer Lucie Delarue, wore a cycling outfit to their wedding that may have inspired Poiret’s harem pants), and she was, in many respects, his paradoxical ideal woman: the slave girl as free spirit.
