The famed fashion house of Lanvin-Castillo in Paris featured
this gold and sequin embroidered dinner gown in its 1960
fall collection. The shawl drapery gives a Spanish accent to
the dress of black wool crepe.
The balloon skirt of this Marucelli of Rome
design drops the waistline without ignor
ing natural curves in a striking cocktail
dress of brown satin and faille. The strap
less bodice, which alternates the fabric in
stripes, serves as a backdrop for the multi
strand gold necklace.
.' This brown crepe daytime dress by
' Balestra of Rome has a pine-cone pot-
f tern skirt topped by a narrow satin
' belt, plain bodice and short sleeves.
Red velvet flowers bloom at the hem and neckline of a short evening
gown (at left) from the fall collection of Centinaro of Rome. In pale beige
satin, the gown has a matching coat with elaborate pleating on the huge
collar. Chanel (right) does her beloved "little suit" in violet tweed with a
