Travilla 1960

The retail version of the costume Joanne Woodward wore in From the Terrace. A suit dress of natural silk linen with a 7/8 length cutaway front and button closings at the waistline over a matching slim sheath.

A beige suit dress of imported silk and wool achieves a fresh, youthful look through white insets in the portrait collar and a white bow to square off the neckline. The intricate use of waistline folds simulating a jacket front is a Travilla trademark.

A day dress of black silk dupioni with a tunic and bodice front of Italian silk print in silver and charcoal which also lines the back hip panel.

Sketches seen in photographs.

A day costume of black silk linen and stark white Alix jersey. The collarless coat is draped into sling folds at each side and is lined with jersey, also used for the top of the strapless sheath dress.

An afternoon dress of white silk French chiffon boldly printed in black palm leaves. The molded bodice has a cape-sleeve silhouette, and a sash of black chiffon applied at a slightly lower waistline defines the full circular skirt. 

Travilla's new sunburst-pleated evening gown is made of supple black silk satin. The skillful draping in the center front makes it a model of simplicity and distinction. 

An evening sheath of black silk faille with an inset and bowed belt of Capri-blue satin. The matching stole is lined with Capri-blue satin.

A series of solid color dresses in textured red and brown silk with white polka dot insets around the dress center.
