Very good colour and condition. A Collector's item.

Jean-Philippe Worth (1856-1926) was the son of Charles Frederick Worth, a pioneer of French Haute Couture and a famous fashion house that operated from 1858 to 1954. After spending a few months studying with the painter Camille Corot, who gave him a certain artistic sensibility, Jean-Philippe Worth joined Worth in 1872. Jean-Philippe took over his father's business in 1895, and during the Belle Epoque, the famous firm was at the height of its fame. He was succeeded by Jean-Charles Worth, who signed this dress around 1923. Worth's toilets were known as the most inventive and fashionable in the world.
