In case you haven’t been to see the exhibition of Robert Fritzlaff’s beautiful couture from the ’50s – ’70s yet (or if you enjoyed it so much you’d like to see more), I can recommend a special event coming up at Como House.
What: Shaping Elegance Salon Show – “see a spectacular salon show in Como’s beautiful ballroom. Experience the fabulous fashion whilst enjoying a delicious morning tea. Meet the designer Robert Fritzlaff and see the exhibition that celebrates his life and style.”
When: Thursday 7th May at 11am
Where: Como House, Corner Williams Road and Lechlade Ave South Yarra
Price: Adults – $70; Concession/Child – $65; National Trust Members – $65; Members Concession – $60. Bookings essential – call 9827 2500
I’m a proud member of the National Trust and was pleased that Circa was able to contribute a small part to the salon parade by accessorising all eighteen ensembles with suitable gloves, hats, handbags and costume jewellery.
Ladies and gentlemen, this will be the closest we get these days to viewing a fashion show as it was back in the glory days of couture, the 1950s – whilst sitting comfortably, sipping tea and nibbling on a sweet morsel. Hope to see some of you there!

Ohh! Am I teaching that morning, that is the big question. If not, I will be there. Thankyou for posting about this!

I hope you can make it: it would be lovely to see you again (it’s been too long).

I’m from New Jersey – in love with the glory days of couture; sorry I won’t be able to make it .. I have several pairs of the original nylon stockings from 1950’s made by Miss Riviera and Lori – never been touched in perfect mint condition I’d love to show Robert Fritzlaff or Nicole – maybe they could be used in his next show ..
Are you ever in New Jersey …

Hi Barbara,
I haven’t been to NJ but I’d love to go. Your stockings sound wonderful!
