About the Item
With snug bodices and wired hip panniers, Robes de Style struck a happy medium between the highly-ornamented gowns of the Victorian era and the slinkier drop-waist dresses of the Jazz Age. This one incorporates scrolling 2-tone silk embroidery to add further interest to the dress itself, which is a shade of citron seldom seen during the Edwardian era.
Sleeveless wide neck Robe de Style with chiffon ruffles around neckline and arm holes; three tiers of additional ruffles at each hip, the topmost of which is backed with a flexible step-in wire stay for jutting pannier effect. Piped neck and waist seam; left side inset split with 6 snap closures. Unlined.

Located in Tucson, AZ

The exotic mustards, blues and pinks of his 1002nd Night dress and the printed silks and velvets of his Orientalist capes are reflected in the luxurious hues and textures of this unique piece.
