RESORT BEACH DRESS MODEL 8 LENA - BLACK

In 1783, the artist Élisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun painted a portrait of Queen Marie Antoinette of France wearing a white cotton robe. It caused a scandal for resembling the undergarments of the period. In 1976 this dress was quickly adopted by the chic set. Imagine Loulou de la Falaise and Bianca Jagger spending the evening at Le Palace, Martha Graham giving a dance performance on an Isamu Noguchi set or Uma Thurman in 1988’s Dangerous Liaisons.
