About
From the iconic ready-to-wear Fall-Winter 1997-1998 « Geisha » collection (in that year Galliano was appointed chief women’s wear designer at Christian Dior), this very chic three piece skirt suit consists of a high waist skirt, an embellished top and a jacket in matching burgundy silk fabric. Embroidered faux pearls around the neckline of the top are adding a touch of glamour in this reinterpretation of the traditional Chinese dress. Fully lined in matching burgundy silk, this collector runway suit is perfect in any occasion ! For info, a similar skirt suit was shown at the « China : Through the Looking Glass » 2015 exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
