Champagne de Castellane Tophat (Haut de forme )

During the Belle Époque period, top hats and tails were the attire for the Parisian "Smart-Set"  when drinking the champagne of choice - Champagne de Castellane.  In this stylish modern take on the 1931 'Le Monocle' poster by Leon Dupin, Canetti has incorporated Castellane's signature red cross in the gentleman's bow tie.    A beautifully understated poster that pairs wonderfully with our other Castellane posters 'Champagne de Castellane Santé!' and 'Champagne de Castellane Ballgown (Tenue de Bal)' 

From the Castellane website: "In 1895 Viscount Florens de Castellane, heir of one of the oldest families in France, established his Champagne house in Epernay. Visionary and resolute to promote his brand to the eyes of the world, he chose as his logo the red "Saint-Andrews" cross as a tribute to the standard of the oldest regiment in the Champagne region"
