Here a mid #1920s gown includes stencilled velvet, Murano glass beads and a wave of chiffon, looking as stylish today as it did a century ago. Sold via #KerryTaylorAuct #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡 616027

The quiet caramel coloured wool chosen for Norman Norell’s early #1970s skirt suit, opens to reveal an explosion of gold sequins, a wonderful juxtaposition of business and pleasure @metmuseum.org #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡 78912

Reposted by Mr EmersonKate Strasdin @katestrasdin.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Bringing a bright note to Friday & an #1840s dress that is pink in more ways than one. Not only is it a brilliant rosy shade, it also has pinked edges, cut with special shears to create additional forms. Some self coloured satin stitch embroidery is the final touch #HistDeerfield #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡 618729
