in anticipation of...

.Charles James at the Met, of course.



“Millicent Rogers inspired [James] more than anyone. “He felt that she could help him to resolve a design when he wasn’t certain how to finish it.” Nancy Lee Gregory James, (Charles James' wife)

  1. I have twice visited Millicent Rogers house in Taos. She had, indeed, exquisite taste.

  3. Can you see the sexual connotation in the folds and their placement on the body? Millicent did! Her James collection is revealed tomorrow evening at the gala.
