Le sigh. These are so gorgeous! I can’t believe I found these beautiful vintage Elsa Schiaparelli treats.

Schiaparelli Tilt Hats – 1938

Elsa Schiaparelli was an Italian who began her career as a designer in 1930s Paris. While Coco Chanel and Madeline Vionnet designed easy, soft clothes, Elsa Schiaparelli designed unusual, almost shocking garments. She invented shocking pink and introduced mad prints, buttons and accessories. She was the designer for hard chic, those who want to be shocking. Elsa introduced the upturned shoe hat which became very famous.

These adorable Red Chandelle Boudoir Slippers are not shocking pink, that is, Schiaparelli’s signature magenta or “shocking pink” but they’re still pretty!
