    Evening Dress

    Mme. Eta Hentz

    Spring/Summer 1944

    This elegant evening dress is a superb adaptation of a classical garment for modern-day dress. The upper portion of the dress resembles a Greek chlamys or a Roman palla, while the fluted skirt mimics the bottom half of a Roman stola.
