She particularly interacted with artists who gathered at the Bateau-Lavoir in Montmartre and was in a romantic relationship with the poet Guillaume Apollinaire. Because Apollinaire advocated for Cubism, she became close friends with Cubist painters such as Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. Her style, while influenced by Cubism, depicted female figures and girls with unique pale colors and elegant lines, creating a sweet and fantastical world. When World War I broke out, she and her German-born husband, Otto von Waetjen, fled to Spain, and later lived in Switzerland and Germany. After the war, she returned to Paris and established a unique style of painting, also known as the Laurencin style, and interacted with prominent figures in the fashion world at the time, such as Chanel. Her works, like the characters in Marcel Proust's novel "In Search of Lost Time," possess a timeless elegance and melancholy, and she is known as one of the representative painters of the École de Paris.
