Jeanne Lanvin (1867 – 1946) began her career as a milliner before moving into the world of fine dressmaking. She created children’s wear and perfume, but was best known for her robes de style, an adaptation of the 18th-century fashion for wearing panniers. “Modern clothes need a certain romantic feel,” she said. They should not become “too everyday and practical.” Mrs. Charles S. Dewey wore this moiré silk dress with crystal beads, and pearls when presented to the Court of Saint James in 1927.
