This cream coloured, silk dress with large puffed sleeves arrived together with the black satin gown also in this room. They were both created at the same Parisian fashion house, Emile Pasquier. The fashion house’s label is on the inside of the bodice and has especially been made visible for this exhibition. This jacquard weave dress is lavishly decorated with sequins, silver thread and beads. Such luxurious decoration may unfortunately influence the condition of the dress and, as in this case, cause irreparable damage to the fabric. It is now only possible to exhibit the dress lying flat but this does not make it any less beautiful.
