A Jeanne Hallee (1880-1914) ball or presentation gown, 1903, with woven label as part of the waistband, `3 Rue Ville L`Eveque, Paris`, the bodice with deep point to waist, square neckline adorned with reticella style chemical lace, studded with rhinestones and bugle beads, silver lace trim, the trained skirt with elaborate skirt front and zig zag bands of silver lace to the hem, together with an image of Lady Monson, (3). Provenance: Probably part of the trousseau of Romaine nee Stone, daughter of the General Roy Stone, who distinguished himself at the battle of Gettysburg. Romaine married first a fellow American, Laurence Turnure, a banker, at St Paul`s Knightsbridge on July 15th 1890, when the Bishop of New York conducted the service. They lived in Paris and Cairo, due to Turnure`s delicate health. A daughter Margaret was born in 1896. Laurence Turnmure died in 1900. Still young and beautiful, the widow had many suitors, principally the 9th Lord Monson, Augustus Debonnaire John, known as `Jacko` by the family. The New York Times announced the wedding thus "To marry Lord Monson, Mrs Turnmure...Lord Monson is a nephew of Sir Edmund Monson, British ambassador in Paris and Controller of the Household of the Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. Augustus Debonnaire John Monson is the 8th baron of his line. He was born in 1868 and succeeded his father in the peerage in 1900. He is private secretary to his uncle, Sir Edmund Monson, and is an Honorary Attache to the British Embassy in Paris. Lord Monson`s seat is Burton Hall, Lincolnshire" See website for extended footnote.

A fine Christian Dior haute couture brown tulle evening gown "Esther" Profile Line, Autumn-Winter 1952, labelled and numbered 20764, and with client tag `Mrs Wanamaker`, and also with separate label `Tribout Shop, John Wanamaker`, the strapless boned bodice and full skirt applied with velvet roundels edged in sparkling gold bugle beads and tiny sequins, the roundels segment and enlarge as they descend the skirt interspesed with godets of vermicalar bugle beads, two tulle petticoats give fullness to the skirt which is mid-calf length for dancing, bust 86cm, 34in, waist 66cm, 26in. Dior`s Profile line in the Autumn of 1952 was as the name suggested a collection of quite sharp and distinct silhouettes that hugged the body and emphasised the hips. It was sober but sexy as Dior edited out what he called "fashion fripperies" and black and brown were repeated throughout the collection. Many of the day and evening gowns used bare skin for maximum impact with strapless bodices or daring decolletage. The velvet adornments and beading on this "Esther" gown are cleverly graduated to emphasise the curve of the breasts to the narrow waist above the full skirt which served to empasise the hips. Vogue reported that Dior`s preferred hem-length was about 11 1/2in from the ground-and they helpfully suggested that the height of the magazine could be used as a measure. The fact that the gown shows both a retail and a couture label suggests that the couture dress was probably sold by Dior under licence to the US so that it could be copied. The original couture gowns were often re-exported across the Canadian border so that the duties paid upon import to the US could be reclaimed and then sold onto a department store or deluxe dress establishment. The Mrs Wanamaker written on the muslin tag was presumably the wife of the retailer.
