The Tea Gown

Dearest glamorous darlings, It has come to my attention that one often hesitates on what to wear when hosting a botox and champagne party, an issue I'm sure, which keeps us all awake at night.

This emblematic wrapper of the 19th century adopted by the new ton acted as much as a reflection as a rejection of Victorian fashion and morality with designs embedded in a geopolitical and economic context.
