Costume to Cherish from Bonwit's Designer Salon. Priceless look by master tailor Ben Zuckerman... the coat of claret coloured heavy grained silk from Italy, water repellent for weather and lined with French imported natural brown marten, the dress in turf brown wool jersey that blends with the fur lining. From our Designer Salon, it has, needless to say... the Bonwit Teller Touch.
