The Patou collection is superb, a monument to reticence and good taste. Though rich, because of texture and detail, the collection in its final analysis might be summed up in two words: "Sumptuous simplicity! "
The beautiful modern supple textures, as Patou treats them, lend themselves magnificently to his particular style of smartness. Patou models somehow do not look like models, nor do the girls who show them look like mannequins. On the contrary, they give the impression of being smart society women of the kind one might meet at Cannes and Biarritz-come across from the Ritz to walk through Patou's salons.
