How very glam! I love the way her dress cascades across the divan..

Totally glam! I was excited to see this photo (in particular) because I have a very similar boudoir gown – here’s a pic of it in action, although it’s hard to see, as it’s open. I had dated it to about ’39, but the fact that Alexis is wearing one above shows that it could be early ’40s.

Sorry – that didn’t work. Try here. Of course, I can show it to you sometime if you’re interested – it’s one of the pieces that I think we photographed for the Book.
