Description du catalogue
Three Robert Piguet pencil sketches with fabric swatches, circa 1950, comprising: ’Cerceaux’ black crêpe cocktail dress, shown again with an astrakhan trimmed coat; together with an un-named black velvet dinner dress design, 27 by 21cm, (3)
Robert Piguet fashion sketches are rare. Lots 21-22 and 27 are from his last two collections (Autumn-Winter 1950 and Spring-Summer 1951) and were sketched by his assistant Serge Guerin. Frequently the designs are in pairs showing not only the dress but also the accompanying coat and accessories.
