Dress

Department Store Bon Marché French

Not on view

Dashing and more than mildly ostentatious, an embellished plush dress provides warmth in accompaniment to Belle Epoque flamboyance. As the wool plush is itself a hyperbole of velvet and wool, relishing the extended pile and tactile effect, it lends itself to such jaunty and garish stylization.
