Samenvatting:

'I merely know Schiap by hearsay. I have only seen her in a mirror. She is, for me a kind of fifth dimension.' - Elsa Schiaparelli

Elsa Schiaparelli is one of the most celebrated fashion designers of the twentieth century. Recognized for her unique creative vision, which combined a love of art and mysticism with ingenious design talent and wit, her collaborations with Surrealist artists, affluent and famous clientele, and innovative - yet wearable - designs set 'Schiap' apart from her contemporaries.
