In 1937, photographer Horst P. Horst had Elsa Schiaparelli pose in a baroque setting to give the illusion of a mirror.

In this photograph, Elsa Schiaparelli is wearing an ensemble from her Haute Couture Winter 1937-38 collection. It consists of a copper crepe dress and a darker red velvet jacket with hanging pockets and copper yellow Lesage embroidery.
