For our debut of Season 8 of Dressed, we bring you the first of our new ongoing series: Fashion Scandals. Today we whisk you into the scandal swirling around surrounding one of the most famous paintings in all of art history, John Singer Sargent's Madame X. We will meet the subject, the American-born Parisian It-Girl Virginie Amélie Avegno Gautreau, and learn just how her appearance in Sargent's portrait shocked even the most jaded of Parisians when it was displayed at one of the world's most prestigious art exhibitions, the Salon de Paris, in 1884.
