El Greco evening coat & gown
This evening coat and gown, named El Greco, was modelled by Ann Lynch in the 1962 Gown of the Year competition. The charcoal and black rose embroidered satin evening coat was worn over a formal gown of white corded lace encrusted with rhinestones and mounted on satin. From the back there is a flowing train of black velvet. Because of the secret voting in the competition, the names of designers were never revealed if they didn't place at the awards.
