HORST P. HORST
SCHIAPARELLI EVENING OUTFIT AND HAIRDRESS
1947
Photographer Horst P.Horst took several shots of the mythical model from the Schiaparelli Haute Couture Spring 1947 collection.
This evening ensemble consists of a short, full black skirt worn with a fitted black crepe peplum jacket, embellished with a shocking pink taffeta facing embroidered with black jet scrolls. The facing continues down the back, ending in a large pouf bow. In the February 1947 issue of Vogue magazine, it was described as "the epitome of her design style."
