Goossens provided the fabulous jewellery - massive palm shaped ear-rings and choker-breastplate necklaces 'shimmering with chain diamanté, crystal or amber set into antique silver, all in a very Edwardian Raj mood' (Dior press release) or tall coiled necklaces reminiscent of Ndebele tribeswomen. The 'Princesses' wore severely tailored tweed suits in lightweight tweeds by Dormeuil and Holland & Sherry. "Its that feeling of espionage like tweeds hiding showy clothes'. (Women's Wear Daily July 1997) Madame Ayoub never wore this ensemble. Please note there are export restrictions on this lot Provenance : The Mouna Ayoub Collection Images Droits Réservés
