Dress with Pleated Flounce, Catharina Kruysveldt-de Mare, c. 1948 - c. 1954

wool, l c.115cm × w c.68cm More details

The French designer Jacques Fath frequently experimented with pleating techniques, as is clear to see in the most striking part of this dress: the wide pleated flounce falling over a straight skirt and ending in an upward point at the front. The flounce is gathered with scores of darts at the top, reinforcing the effect of the folds.
