Summary[edit]

Description
English: "It is either made of moonlight and orchids, or mother of pearl, or dove

grey panne velvet — this evening gown from Stein & Blaine. But I believe the last analysis is much more sane and therefore must be, in these days of rationalization, correct. Orchid and blue changeable taffeta roses, edged with rhinestones, and conventionalized so that they might just as well be orchids as any other flower, and look as sweet, catch the drape at the hips and appear again at the scalloped hem line of the skirt. In lieu of sleeves are two crossed bands of rhinestones

and there is a loose girdle of rhinestones to keep them sparkling company. With this gown could — and should — be carried an extraordinarily large black tulle fan"
