Jacques Decaux was a French fashion photographer active during the 1950s and 1960s, known for his refined and elegant portrayal of haute couture. He collaborated with prestigious fashion houses such as Christian Dior, Jean Patou, and Jacques Fath, capturing their creations with a focus on texture, detail, and sophistication.
Decaux had a particular talent for highlighting luxurious fabrics like Dognin lace and satin de soie, often photographing garments in a way that emphasized their craftsmanship and grace. His work appeared in leading fashion publications of the time and helped define the visual language of post-war French fashion.
