Pedro Rodríguez
Sleeveless dress, V-neckline. Silk fabric striped horizontally on a cream background. Printed on light gray eyelet chain. Circa 1948 Pedro Rodríguez opened his fashion house in Barcelona in 1919. He was the first in Spain to follow the guidelines of the professional association of haute couture in Paris: to present complete collections on live mannequins in their own elegantly decorated showrooms and made entirely in their own workshops. In 1940 he was one of the instigators of the Barcelona Haute Couture Cooperative and served as its president until his death. He was also one of the people responsible for promoting Spanish fashion in the world in the 1950s and 60s, its golden age. He served an endless list of Spanish and foreign clients, including aristocrats, upper-class ladies, American millionaires and Hollywood actresses.
