It has small straps on the shoulders and a low neckline, and the line of the gown flares out slightly at hip-level. It is made of cotton tatting, representing flowers and foliage, in tones of pink, blue and green, over an underdress of pink silk.\r\n\r\nNina Ricci retired in 1959, leaving a tradition of natural feminity, excellent cut and fine craftsmanship.  This dress for the romantic youth of the 1960s was designed by Gerard Pipart, who took over Nina Ricci's collections in 1964. Pipart was a remarkable colourist and his collections were known for their beautiful and subtle tones.","physicalDescription":"Evening dress of large scale, machine woven floral lace in shades of pink, blue-green lace mounted over green silk organza.\r\n\r\nThe dress is full length, with a shaped brassiere top that has pink straps, low cut at the back and almost straight cut.\r\n\r\nIt is backed with green silk taffeta lined with cream wild silk. The bust is lined with cream net and boned. The inner waist band is of cream silk and hooks to fasten.\r\n\r\nThe dress fastens at the back with a separate zip for dress and lining. There are green, silk hanging loops attached to the waist band.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Gerard Pipart","id":"A17879"},"association":{"text":"designer","id":"x36960"},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[{"name":{"text":"Nina Ricci","id":"A15170"},"association":{"text":"fashion house","id":"x35890"},"note":""}],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"cotton thread","id":"x34841"},{"text":"silk (textile)","id":"AAT243428"}],"techniques":[{"text":"machine sewing","id":"AAT257463"},{"text":"tatting","id":"AAT53641"},{"text":"tatting","id":"AAT53641"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Machine woven lace, silk organza, backed with silk taffeta, lined with wild silk, boned brassiere lined with net, silk waist band","categories":[{"text":"Fashion","id":"THES48957"},{"text":"Clothing","id":"THES48975"},{"text":"Evening wear","id":"THES48999"},{"text":"Lace","id":"THES48926"},{"text":"Europeana Fashion Project","id":"THES265804"}],"styles":[],"collectionCode":{"text":"T&F","id":"THES48601"},"images":["2006BJ2391","2006BJ2392"],"imageResolution":"low","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"010","id":"THES308009"},"free":"","case":"","shelf":"","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"Evening dress","id":""}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"Paris","id":"x29068"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"1968","earliest":"1968-01-01","latest":"1968-12-31"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Given by Cecil Beaton","dimensions":[],"dimensionsNote":"","marksAndInscriptions":[{"content":"'Nina Ricci Paris'","inscriber":{"name":{"text":"","id":""},"association":{"text":"","id":""}},"date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"description":"","interpretation":"","language":"","medium":"","method":"","position":"","script":"","translation":"","transliteration":"","type":"","note":"Label, stitched inside the side seam of the skirt"},{"content":"'BORKG MES'","inscriber":{"name":{"text":"","id":""},"association":{"text":"","id":""}},"date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"description":"","interpretation":"","language":"","medium":"","method":"","position":"","script":"","translation":"","transliteration":"","type":"","note":"Written in ink on the underside of the waist band"}],"objectHistory":"","historicalContext":"","briefDescription":"Evening dress of machine woven lace and silk, designed by Gerard Pipart for Nina Ricci, Paris, 1968","bibliographicReferences":[],"production":"","productionType":{"text":"Haute couture","id":"THES48861"},"contentDescription":"","contentPlaces":[],"associatedPlaces":[],"contentPerson":[],"associatedPerson":[],"contentOrganisations":[],"associatedOrganisations":[],"contentPeople":[],"associatedPeople":[],"contentEvents":[],"associatedEvents":[],"contentOthers":[],"contentConcepts":[],"contentLiteraryRefs":[],"galleryLabels":[],"partNumbers":["T.23-1977"],"accessionNumberNum":"23","accessionNumberPrefix":"T","accessionYear":1977,"otherNumbers":[],"copyNumber":"","aspects":["WHOLE"],"assets":["2006BJ2353"],"recordModificationDate":"2025-04-16","recordCreationDate":"2005-04-12","availableToBook":true}}
