In “The History of Rococo,” the book cover design delves into the extravagant and satirical nature of 18th-century fashion. It captures the opulence and whimsical excess that defined the Rococo era, focusing on the elaborate styles and extravagant hairstyles popularized by women like Marie Antoinette.
The design employs ornate patterns and a vibrant color palette to highlight the period’s indulgence and irony. Bold, vivid hues emphasize the era’s flamboyance, while playful elements reflect the era's penchant for excess and satire.
Typography was selected for its striking, modern look to echo the youthful and revolutionary spirit of the women who set the fashion trends of the time. This contemporary touch aligns with the progressive nature of Rococo fashion, offering a fresh and engaging perspective on the historical grandeur and youthful audacity of the era.
