- Synopsis
- To every woman, everywhere, comes the dress she cannot live without. This is the beguiling story, as only Paul Gallico can tell it, of Mrs. ’Arris and her Dior gown. As is the right of every respectable London charwoman, Mrs. ’Arris spent many hours gazing wistfully at her employers' glittering wardrobes—wardrobes resplendent with names like Patou, Chanel, Balmain and, above all, Christian Dior. And so Mrs. ’Arris went to Paris. Her bewildered arrival in the City of Light, her timid entry into the awesome elegance of the Dior salon, and how her presence there affected the lovely mannequin Mlle. Petitpierre and her young adorer M. Fauvel make this one of Paul Gallico’s most magical novels. This is a story as beautiful as the Dior dress Mrs. ’Arris coveted and as warm and loving as Mlle. Petitpierre’s heart.
