Old Favourites: Style is a Simple Way of Saying Complicated Things

Well, that is what Mr Cocteau told me this morning as I tried to stare down the complicated day that lay ahead of me. Having run out of time I leave you with a snap of an original vintage Cocteau print from the April 1937 Harpers Bazaar:


Titled: " L'elegance en 1937 - Robe du Soir - The incomparable Coco, Madamoiselle Chanel "
Inscribed: "In her white silk crepe dinner dress, her magnificent multi-colored jewels and her hair ribbon.-Hattie Carnegie"
241mm x 330mm
