About the series
In this four-issue series from the French publisher naBan, the legendary 18th-century dressmaker Rose Bertin steps out of history and into a stylized thriller. Known as the "minister of fashion" to Marie Antoinette, Bertin is reimagined here as a cunning operative whose haute couture creations conceal deadly secrets—each gown a weapon in the political intrigues of pre-Revolutionary France. The series blends period drama with espionage, centering on a woman whose artistry and ambition make her both a creator and a destroyer. With its sharp focus on fashion as power, this 2026 debut offers a fresh, stylish entry into historical fiction.
