⭐️ 💛 "Charles James is not only the greatest American couturier, but the world's best and only dressmaker who has raised it from an applied art to a pure art form." So wrote the great Spanish couturier, Cristobal Balenciaga, himself described by Dior as "the master of us all." James first designed the Petal Ballgown in 1949 for the heiress and fashion figure Millicent Rogers. But the dress didn't become truly famous until 1951, when Horst photographed it for Vogue: "The bodice is a long curving stem of black velvet above petals of black satin, above 25 yards of blowing, billowing white taffeta." We celebrate the artistry of Charles James who was born in 1906 🎉
