Iron butterfly


Portrait by Richard Avedon





Kimono style evening dress



Hanae Mori, doyenne of Japanese fashion.




And master of the print.







But to be a woman? It seemed to mean being a woman at the beginning and being a woman forever.

Dear HOBAC, I love kimono dresses and these are both stunning.

I'm sorry the Westwood jacket didn't work out. It sounded wonderful xx
