HERBIER GILET, in navy cotton and blue lurex with shades of green, black back and lining. Size M. History of the Herbier Waistcoat Philippe de La Salle, one of Lyon's leading ornamentalists of the mid-18th century, worked directly from nature: flowers, trees, leaves. Our "herbarium" composition is based on an original 18th-century drawing of a carpet of leaves. It corresponds to the taste for natural inspiration in art frequently illustrated by the painter Desportes.
