Don't forget the butterfly is the motif of Paris and Rome and Milan.
It may not be new to us because of various flea market butterflies
we have seen from time to time but butterflies are just divine
and are everywhere as ornaments on the shoulder, at the wrist.
BiBi:
Isn't it quite important that you should really do something about
this. I do think that a divine halo of butterflies would be so
pretty on a little base fluttering about the face, down the neck
on small wires. This could most easily be made.
What's happening about the belts at the waist. I would deeply
appreciate it if I could have an answer from you as to what
is in work for Bali.
ALEXANDER MCQUEEN'S SPRING 2008 COLLECTION- A TRIBUTE TO ISABELLA BLOW &
THE HAT "a divine halo of butterflies " IS BY PHILIP TREACY-
-they must have gotten the memo.
Wonder what MRS. VREELAND would have made of that halo & of this tripartite- Zeus, Leto & Apollo?
.
That is absolutel to die for. I am glad Philip got the memo!
ReplyDeleteI am feeling rather at a loss for words these days, with much going on. Good things. But I must tell you that there are no words for how much I love this post. Truly.
ReplyDeleteLove this! Have you ever read "October Blood" by Francine du Plessix Gray? You must!
ReplyDeletePoetic- I will check into that right away! I love her writing have read several of hers. pgt
ReplyDeletePGT Little Augury, I am loving all things Diana Vreeland at this moment... just bonkers for her! Your DV Grey post and this butterfly one are "a bit of all right". Could BiBi have been Bebe Berard, or was this a different Bibi? More DV please!
