Step into the glamorous world of the Riviera casinos in the 1930s, where elegance and style reigned supreme both on and off the gaming tables. This photograph, featured in The Sketch magazine, showcases two exquisite printed dresses that were all the rage among sophisticated women during this era. On the left, a bold and vibrant coral and gold dress in crepe-de-chine catches the eye. The dress boasts a striking white background and a dramatic back, which is cut up in a point. A double sash adds an extra touch of elegance to this eye-catching number. Next to it, a duster-check silk hopsack dress in pink and green grabs attention with its completely backless design. The dress is further accentuated by a matching cape, which adds a playful touch with its amusing pleated tabs that emphasize the shoulder line. Both of these stunning dresses were available at Fortnum & Mason, a renowned department store in London, and were the epitome of fashionable evening wear during the 1930s.
