Elsa Schiaparelli | c. 1938

I finally went to Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations at the met yesterday. I absolutely fell in love with this gown. It is stunning in person. I particularly love the sleeves. They are a perfectly dainty interpretation of the large shoulder pads of the era.
