RM2WKEERK–Sargent used fashion as a powerful tool to express identity and personality. He regularly chose the outfits of his collaborators or manipulated their clothing. This innovative use of costume was central to his artwork – for example, tugging a heavy coat tighter around a man to emphasise his figure or letting a dress strap sensuously slip from a woman’s shoulder. It was these daring sartorial choices that allowed him to express his vision as an artist.

RM2RC90C4–Madame X (also known as Madame Pierre Gautreau) 1884 by John Singer Sargent

RMPB210B–Madame X (Madame Pierre Gautreau). Artist: John Singer Sargent (American, Florence 1856-1925 London). Dimensions: 82 1/8 x 43 1/4in. (208.6 x 109.9cm) Framed: 95 3/4 x 56 5/8 x 5 in. (243.2 x 143.8 x 12.7 cm). Date: 1883-84. Madame Pierre Gautreau (the Louisiana-born Virginie Amélie Avegno; 1859-1915) was known in Paris for her artful appearance. Sargent hoped to enhance his reputation by painting and exhibiting her portrait. Working without a commission but with his sitter's complicity, he emphasized her daring personal style, showing the right strap of her gown slipping from her shoulder.
