Melon pink

While editing one of my works in progress, I was reminded that I once built most of a scene around this blouse Vivien Leigh wore in a fashion spread in Harper’s Bazaar in 1940.

The blouse is melon pink made from Biancini silk and the outfit (with the black chiffon velvet skirt) was sold by Henri Bendel for $135. The photographer was George Hoyningen-Huene.
