Gallery label | With summer evening events, Ascot and weddings in mind, Jill bought this pert Ungaro printed linen suit. For Ascot she commissioned the straw hat with specially dyed fabric flowers from Graham Smith. She remembers that the weather at Ascot that year was cold and wet, compelling her to wear thermal undergarments. Even so, she was freezing and had to seek refuge in a friend's box.(2008) |
