Called a “sculptor of fabric,” Manhattan designer Jo Copeland created refined clothes that added a dose of American practicality to the highly sophisticated European fashion of postwar France. A superior example of her work, this skirt has the fullness of “New Look” Dior but requires no crinoline and pairs as beautifully with a white t-shirt as it does with a velvet jacket.
