The French couturière Jeanne Hallée was known for delicate creations of silk chiffon and/or lace. The bodice is fashioned from handmade Cluny lace over bronzed gold lamé. The collar is embellished with horizontal bands of gold lamé and decorative cut-steel buttons set with rhinestones. The front opening has black chiffon panels sandwiched between the lace and the lamé. The panels form a cummerbund around the back waist.
