Monday Morning Museum: Elsa Schiaparelli

Elsa Schiaparelli – Wednesday 10 September 1890 Rome, Italy to Tuesday 13 November 1973 Paris, France

Italian-born French Designer

I really like the use of different materials in Schiaparelli’s – Pin, circa 1950s – and having blue in the pin only adds to my appreciation of the flower bouquet accessory.
