About the Item

Presenting an exquisite and exceptionally rare Paul Daunay couture fall daytime ensemble, a true gem hailing from the era of circa 1952-57. This ensemble is a stunning showcase of artistry, boasting a captivating brown and ivory wool fabric adorned with an art deco-style print, epitomizing elegance and sophistication.

Lined in luxurious brown silk, the coat offers both style and comfort for the discerning wearer. Complementing the coat is a silk dress with a high neckline and slightly puffed shoulders, adding a touch of grace and femininity. The ensemble is further enhanced by a matching waist belt, adorned with large tassels, and a drop waist skirt in the same alluring art deco print.

This haute couture ensemble serves as a remarkable example of the genius designs prevalent in the 1950s, a golden era of fashion craftsmanship.
