The molded-hip silhouette of a jacket and dusty, twisted georgette gowns came from his Barry Lyndon show; the oating bird-of-paradise prints, from his "shipwreck" season; the ombré-printed vast-shouldered kimonos, from his Japanese couture collection for Givenchy; the trapezoid shapes, transposed from the tricorne hats of his "highwayman" moment; the lace stockings, reprised from his They Shoot Horses… performance.
