Dress by Henri Gowns, 1953
A romantic picture frock of grey-blue wild silk. The skirt is worked in huge petals and the rose which decorates the very plain strapless bodice is in muted shades of mauve, pink and grey. The woman wearing it seems more interesting in thinking about what she will wear to the next party rather than listening to her male companion. Date: 1953

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1953, a woman dressed in an exquisite gown by Henri Gowns exudes an air of elegance and sophistication as she engages in a deep thought, seemingly more preoccupied with her upcoming social engagement than the conversation with her male companion. The dress, made of wild grey-blue silk, is a stunning example of 1950s fashion, with a full skirt adorned with oversized petals that add to the romantic and feminine allure. The strapless bodice, adorned with a single rose in muted shades of mauve, pink, and grey, adds an understated yet elegant touch to the gown. The woman's poised posture and the smoke curling from the holder between her fingers add an element of glamour and mystery to the scene. The 50s-style holder, with its delicate curves and intricate design, complements the gown perfectly, further emphasizing the ladylike elegance of the era. The woman's thoughtful expression and the dimly lit surroundings create an atmosphere of intrigue and anticipation, as if she is lost in the possibilities of what she will wear to the next party. This photograph captures the essence of the 1950s, with its romantic gowns, elegant smoking accessories, and the timeless allure of a woman lost in her own thoughts.
