Europe for the cut
China for the satin

Elegant evening or interior dress in bronze green satin embroidered with large chrysanthemums in sky blue, pale pink and cream dating from the period of World War II. High-waisted cut crossed in front and closed by a matching button with pass. Collar with large flaps and tie, long sleeves with small puff to the shoulders. In contrast, an emerald green Duchesse satin lining! I This type of coat dress is inspired by the men's wardrobe since the First Empire and the famous Redingotte (Riding-coat) worn by women. Moreover, the tradition of the house dress for the evening and the reception, comes to us from the French Negligé since the century of the Lights! No defect to note. Very nice condition of color and conservation. Wearable today!
