This is an authentic vintage fashion stat sheet from the early 1990s, acquired in Paris. It features a striking, structured couture design signed by the renowned French couturier Serge Lepage, former Creative Director for Schiaparelli.
What is a Fashion Stat?
A "stat" (short for photostat) is a high-fidelity archival reproduction used by Parisian couture houses during the pre-digital era. These were not mass-market prints but professional design tools. Once a designer completed a master sketch, a very limited number of these high-quality stats were produced to be sent exclusively to elite international buyers, press offices, and high-end boutiques to showcase the new season's collection. Because they were intended for internal industry use and often discarded after the season, surviving stats are now highly collectible pieces of fashion ephemera.
Artist: Serge Lepage (Printed Signature)
Origin: Paris, France
Period: c. 1990–1994
Dimensions: 8.25" x 11.75"
Condition: Very Good Vintage Condition. These are authentic 1990s industry documents on lightweight paper, and show light, age-appropriate handling wear, including minor creasing. These small imperfections are consistent with their history as working fashion studies and do not detract from the bold, graphic impact of the illustrations. This is an un-matted, loose sheet, allowing the buyer to choose a framing style that suits their personal decor.
Provenance: Acquired directly in Paris; a genuine artifact of 90s French high fashion.
