From the most stunning bare back of French cinema to the essential black tuxedo, the wardrobe of Mireille Darc has everything of a legend. Back on its most emblematic silhouettes.
Mireille Darc has never turned her back in fashion. And for good reason, it is one of those actresses which are forever linked to a silhouette, inseparable from a look. In the case of the star, it is obviously the sulphurous dress bare back that it carries with allure in The big blonde with a black shoe by Yves Robert in 1972. A strong clothing choice, anchored in history and which testifies to the radical style of the actress today deceased.
Mireille Darc, the woman back naked
Signed Guy Laroche, the sheath with the neckline flirting with the buttocks is certainly the room which brought Mireille Darc into the legend. Like Audrey Hepburn and Hubert de Givenchy, at a time when styling was not imposed on the film sets, it was the union of the wishes of the actress and the designer that gives birth to this silhouette. Friend of Guy Laroche, Mireille Darc imagines with him this dress by postponing the limits of the sexy as much as possible. Full cardboard for the duo, which manages to impose the outfit on the shooting of the film and to unleash passions when it was released.
Smoking in all circumstances
If for many the actress’s wardrobe comes down to the black dress of 1972, Mireille Darc has at least one other flagship look. On a daily basis, during gala, preview or programs evenings, the actress acclaimed the tuxedo. Adjusted or loose according to eras and circumstances, often black and sometimes white, the male whole will constitute its uniform, in the same way as its cut, the legendary platinum square. A signature minimalism that will accompany the actress to the end of her life.
