Afternoon dress by #JacquesDoucet 1900–1903 👗This is an elegant afternoon dress that would be suitable for afternoon events, such as the races and other promenade activities. 👗 The dress is an excellent example of Doucet's penchant for lingerie-like garments, which is represented by the delicate #ruffles and #rose printed #chiffon 👗 The colour combination of blues accented with #turquoise is a favourite of the designer. #history #museumcollection #antiquetextile #instamuseum #museumoninstagram #antiquesilk #historicaldress #costumehistory #fashion #historicalfashion #historicalclothing #dresshistory #fashionhistory #historicalcostume #fashionhistorian #20thcentury #20thcenturyfashion #blue #dress #dresses #afternoondress Source: The MET https://www.instagram.com/p/Bzx8GD4g1MJ/?igshid=i5p88uzb38j9
