Evening Dress. 1953 (made) Beaded, silk "crinoline" evening gowns became Norman Hartnell's hallmark. He was at the peak of his career in the mid1950s, when he designed this dress. Featuring a flamboyant, beaded pink flower over each breast, it would have been considered rather daring at the time.
Norman HArtnell designed this state evening dress for Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother. The crinoline dress, with its V-shaped neckline and delicate tulle cap-sleeves, recalls mid-19th-century dresses as seen in the portraits of Franz Winterhalter.
Hartnell is best known for his intricately embroidered dresses for grand occasions, especially those made for Queen Elizabeth II and the Queen Mother in the 1950s. This earlier and more modest evening dress is bias-cut, and the design skilfully contrasts ruffled sleeves with knife-pleated godets and a perfectly plain bodice.
