MYSTERIOUS, SENSUAL, COMMANDING... 8 months ago
We're talking about GLOVES !
Worn with:
- sensuality in the unforgettable sequence from Gilda (1946), featuring an amazing (redhead) Rita Hayworth.
The way she takes her gloves off is worth a thousand strip-teases
- careless, natural elegance by Audrey Hepburn in the film "Breakfast at Tiffany's", directed by Blake Edwards
- pure and simple class in this photo by John French (whom I really love) of Jennifer Howland in a Cavanagh gown (Victoria&Albert Museum)
