| Evening Gown House of Worth 1928-1929 The Victoria & Albert Museum |
A long evening gown of aquamarine chiffon, this dress has a printed floral pattern in shades of lilac, orange and gold which was inspired by Asian designs. The pattern is outlined with iridescent sequins.
The
sleeveless dress is straight cut with a low round neck at the front and a deep
'V' at the back. Four shield-shaped panels of golden tulle outlined in golden
sequins are attached at the hips and a sunburst pattern is embroidered on them
in iridescent sequins. Three graduated layers of gathered aquamarine tulle edge
and join the panels.
