This textile is a "robe," a length of silk that was embroidered and beaded by the manufacturer in advance, ready for the dressmaker to cut out and sew into a "chemise"-style 1920s dress. Large-scale moderne floral medallions combine with an allover ground pattern found in many Chinese silks in this "robe." |
