Elsa Schiaparelli's "Cap with Morning Glories" (c. 1948-1952) is a striking example of her surrealist approach to fashion design. The delicate fabric flowers, with their intricate details and vibrant colors, create a captivating, almost dreamlike composition, exemplifying Schiaparelli's mastery of textile manipulation and her penchant for juxtaposing the whimsical and the elegant. This whimsical hat, showcasing the artist's renowned avant-garde style, has become an iconic symbol of her unique artistic vision.
Comments
The fashion designer Elsa Schiaparelli launched a signature bright pink known as ‘shocking pink’, the colour of some of the morning glories on this little cap. According to the hat’s owner, Schiaparelli’s unconventional designs need not make a woman elegant, because her clients already were! While the designs were meant to draw attention, their refined workmanship ensured that a woman never looked ridiculous.
