EDITORS COMMENTS
Sallie Monkland, an American socialite residing in London, is depicted in this photograph from the 1930s, wearing an amusing Schiaparelli dress that added a touch of whimsy to a cocktail party at her Carlos Place residence. The dress, described by The Bystander magazine as a Schiaparelli creation of a shiny black material, boasted a striking contrast with its starched white clerical collar. This unexpected combination of formal and playful elements showcased Monkland's impeccable sense of style and her ability to make a statement. The dress, reminiscent of a bishop's robe, added an air of intrigue and elegance to the elegant socialite. Monkland's guests were likely drawn to her unique fashion choice, which no doubt added to the lively and memorable atmosphere of the cocktail party. This photograph, taken in 1934, captures a moment in time when Monkland's personal style and Schiaparelli's innovative designs came together to create an unforgettable impression.
