New Year's Evening Gowns

While the well-bred lady commissions her New Year's evening gown well before the date, we recognize that some ladies lead adventurous lives leaving them little time to attend to the necessities. We still have a few evening gowns left for New Year's Eve galas. But do not delay. Come for your fitting today.

This year we are offering four lines: Dare to Wear, The Glamourous Life, Tastefully Yours, and Only You.

Dare to Wear

Midsummer Night's Dream

In Flame-Color'd Taffeta

Love's Labours Won

The Glamorous Life

She Stoops to Conquer

She Cuts a Wide Swathe

Tastefully Yours

How Do I Love Thee

Be the Green Grass Above Me

Only You

She Walks in Beauty

Fashions to Faint For

At Fashions to Faint For, we cater to your vanity. We know you want to turn heads. You want to hear people whisper, “Who is that elegant woman?” You want to be forever young. Alas, today’s chic belle femme is likely to drown as she searches for the perfect party frock in the déclassé sea of what currently passes for fashion. We shudder. So should you. You should not have to faint in horror—oh no, never in horror—at fashion. Rather, when you enter a dress shop, you should faint for pleasure on discreetly placed Louis Quinze fainting couches and be gently wafted back to consciousness by rose-scented sal volatile designed exclusively for you by the revered perfumiers at Chambre des Roses.

The provenance of our fainting couches has been certified by the Parisian Conseil de Meuble Louis Quinze. When you collapse on our fainting couches, you are assured of fainting on genuine Louis Quinze belonging to the original Louis himself. And of course, faint you will when you survey our collection.
