Evening dress

Designer Marguerite

Not on view

This evening dress reflects the transitional period around 1915 when dressmaking included a mix of materials. Here chiffon, fur and velvet are used. The silhouette shows the popular pannier shape of the time. Although a variety of textiles were employed, the design is less complex than the embellished work of the Belle Époque.
