Paris



I went to Paris during the holiday break. I did not do that much sight seeing, but I love this card by Anais Dulac. I hadn't been in Paris for a long time, I had forgotten what the city had to offer.
As luck would have it, there was an amazing Madeleine Vionnet exhibition at the Musee des Arts Decoratifs.
 



 
I fell for this gorgeous gold leather belt, so modern (but dated 1936) and the perfect accessory for the cream grecian dress. 
So many dresses from the 20s and 30s, each superbly displayed with the original photographic shot of the era, this was such a treat!
I'm starting a new pattern cutting course tomorrow - learning to drape on the stand - so it was perfect so see those amazing dresses, all so ingeniously cut.
