Description
Paper photograph depicting two women modeling Renato BALESTRA's spring 1960 creations - two skirt suits with wide collarless necklines and half-mast sleeves of the jackets. The suit on the left is made of a charcoal wool, and has a black and white checked overblouse with longer sleeves that make cuffs for the jacket. On the right, a grey tweed ensemble features a double jacket front, faced in navy wool, to accentuate the cutaway effect. Both costumes are complemented by high-crowned hats that repeat the cutaway line.Material
