About the Item

Iconic "Trompe l'oeil" long wool jersey dress. Size 44 (It) but fit more likely S Camerino won a Neiman Marcus Fashion Award in 1956 in recognition of the success and influence of her handbags. Her cut-velvet bags featured brass hardware made by Venetian craftsmen, and were carried by celebrities such as Grace Kelly, Farrah Fawcett, and Elizabeth Taylor.[3] In addition to the handbags, which often featured trompe-l'œil buckles and flaps, Roberta di Camerino also sold coats, dresses, and other clothing.[1] Some of her fabrics were woven on antique looms, which helped support local industry in post-war Italy.[1] The first Roberta di Camerino fashion show, held in Venice in 1949, was remembered for its theatricality.[3]
