La mode déshabillée #[nn]

A striking cover sets the tone for this 2021 Casterman release: a tall, elegantly stylized figure in a sweeping black gown dominates the frame, while two small, casually dressed characters — one with bunny ears, one gesturing pointedly — peer out from behind her hem, suggesting a playful tension between high fashion's grandeur and a more irreverent, investigative spirit. Billed as une enquête dessinée by Zoé Thouron and Frédéric Godart, La Mode Déshabillée promises to pull back the curtain on the fashion world with both wit and curiosity. It's a beautifully composed package that feels as thoughtful as it does charming.
