“Marquise”
Robe de Style
Jeanne Lanvin
1925 (Approx)
“Marquise” robe de style of cyclamen coloured silk taffeta with built-in pannier structure.
Medallions-formed by open-worked compositions derived from Japanese mon-encircle the skirt as well as forming a linear border just above the hemline. Because the mon structure is created with voids, the metallic gold lame underdress shows through revealing a hint of glimmer where beading used to be employed for the same effect.
