Summer gowns show extensive filminess with transparent sleeves and décolletés. Paris race meets highlight airy hats with paradise plumes, delicate Chantilly lace, and light tulle tunics over satin and chiffon, while younger figures adopt Directoire influenced lines and new skirt silhouettes.
A Paris inspired fashion scene appears in town as a returning American woman showcases chic garb. She wears a dark blue crepe de Chine dress with satin belts, a tulle surplice frill, and long crepe sleeves. Her Watteau hat, veiled complexion, velvet sunshade, striped stockings, and black silk shoes complete the ensemble.
The piece features long sleeves with seamless kimono shoulders and a deep V neckline edged by white lace Medici ruche. Black taffeta girdles and sashes create a wide belt illusion, with sprigged red taffeta frocks and velvet belt detailing shaping the silhouette.
