The filigree sequins give this skirt the singularity of a snowflake
Check out loose, easy, wearable shapes. Sort of like a women's lib collection.
Lighweight wool with very minimal binding and structure.
I found the arm opening construction on this dress very elegant and innovative.
A tiny barely visible seam shows were a sliver of fabric was likely inserted into the skirt to create a fuller sweep.
I havn't gone into much detail regarding the garments because everything (and much more) can be found in the accompanying book, High Style. In particular, I bypassed a bulk of work on display by Worth and James.
A bonus bounty of fruit from the main museum collection.
