Look O
- Description:
- By the end of the 1920s hemlines plummeted and curves began a subtle comeback as the 1930s saw bias-cut, creatively seamed dresses hug the body’s silhouette. Fashions of the time revealed the shoulders, exposed the back, and skimmed the body in narrow sheath dresses that showed off the curves beneath. Height also became newly desirable. This dress was designed by prominent French fashion designer Edmond Courtot.
