Description du catalogue
ribbon labels, comprising: red wool sleeveless twin-set, the ’sweater’ with integral back bumps, both with button fastenings; a stretch nylon red and white gingham checked over-bodice; a matching stretch gingham skirt in beige check with irregular, undulating seams creating contours, dipping rear hem; and a pair of white leather pumps with ankle ties and ballet-pointe blunt edged toes (6)
It is rare to find garments from this collection with such extreme, exaggerated ’bumps’ complete with integral original pillows. The outer gingham layers are similar to look 6 on the runway.
