One of a kind and simply fantastic velvet evening set by Jean Louis. It is hard to describe what is its best asset; impeccable design and construction, fabric (like butter), the color (we can taste the rich wine), and condition (has stood the test of time). The ensemble consists of a full length halter dress and an impressive jacket to match with ombre feathers. The fit and flair silhouette creates a beautiful waterfall of velvet that drops just below the ankle. The jacket adds opulence to this outfit with ostrich feathers on the sleeves and neck. This is one of the exceptional outfits where you can wear either piece alone and still easily be the best dressed!
Fun Fact: Jean Louis created the "Happy Birthday, Mr President" dress for Marilyn Monroe in 1962 when she sung for President Kennedy.

The shimmering A-line dress features a low scoop neck, a geometric stitched bodice, a low back, and a pleated slit at the center back of the skirt. The coat is knee length and features mink cuffs.
Hartnell began his career in the 1920s, using his University of Cambridge ties to acquire elite clients and dressing them for high prestige social events. His designs later caught the eye of entertainers such as Merle Oberon, Tallulah Bankhead, Evelyn Laye, Gertrude Lawrence, and Mistinguett. Hartnell's pieces continued to turn heads in the 1930s and 1940s, to design the 1930s and 1940s, and had even been appointed dressmaker to the royal family in 1938, designing the wedding dresses of Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Margaret, the amazing coronation gown for Elizabeth II in 1953, as well as a gown for her first visit to the United States in 1956. Norman Hartnell defined a look that was the epitome of British aristocratic elegance; his work was lavish, restrained, and always flawless.
