Fashion, Darlings, Fashiion!!!!!!!!!!!! I Would Just LOVE To Wear These Creations By Elsa Schiaparelli!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                           She seems to me to be one of the underrated and neglected of fashion designers.  Who, except queens like I, talk about her, anymore.  So I have put together an assembly of outfits I would like to be seen on, based on color and pattern, of course.  When you see these, girls, you will realize it is time for Schiaparelli Renaissance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, my God!  Look at the red hands designed on the white fabric.  The muted neck collar and sleeves.  Red and white is an infallible color combo.  I would wear this on a visit to Sag Harbor, my favorite hangout in the Hamptons!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, this--this is perfect for Fall!  The hat is fresh and pert, and gives one a fun, irreverent look that matches the spirit of the dress, even though it is brilliantly structured.  Perfect for a gala or fundraising evening.

I just love the semi-Victorian pattern?  Or is Commedia Dell'Arte????????  Anyway, isn't this gorgeous?  Rather Summery looking, I think it would enliven the dog days of August.  Don't you, dolls??????????

These two are classic. On the left, I LOVE the creamy white, mixed in with some blue, the red waist girdle, and is that a lobster on the front????????  Perfect for a barbecue.  I am going to one, Sunday.  Wish I could wear this.  To the right, we have a very period, almost medieval look.  The white with patterns again dazzles, and the flowing hood can compensate for anything you do, or don't do with your hair.  I would wear this one, at home--if hostessing--not going out.  But everyone will talk about it, dolls, I am telling you!

So, that is a Schiaparelli sampling.  Hey ANNA, how about an issue or an exhibit at the Costume Institute, devoted to this adventuress in color?????????  I would be there immediately.

Which is your favorite, girls?????????????
