A red beaded empire line evening gown labeled Barbara Matera LTD, New York with black typescript Ms Taylor, trimmed with silk roses at hip and breast, with red lace, fringed sleeves, the whole embellished with bugle beads, made for Elizabeth Taylor as Desirée Armfeldt in the 1977 film adaptation A Little Night Music

Note du spécialiste

The musical narrates the romantic lives of a collection of friends and aquaintances. Elizabeth Taylor as Desirée Armfeldt is seen wearing an identical gown, with the famous La Peregrina pearl, during the banquet scene at Madame Armfeldts country retreat, and later when she and Fredrik Egarman, played by Len Cariou, are alone. Following Fredriks rejection of Desirées offer to rescue him from his marriage to a virgin bride, she breaks into her rendition of the ballad Send In The Clowns.
