Jacquard-woven silk and metal-thread brocade with crystal, bead, paillette, and silver-metal thread embroidery for an official trip to Iran in April 1967, this mandarin-collared, sleeveless
variation on Thai national dress is made from a European silk and metal-thread brocade completely concealed beneath a layer of Lesage’s characteristically complex embroidery.
