John Cavanagh is my hero

Okay, so I was doing some research for an article I'm writing about John Cavanagh and I very soon came across this dress (obviously, as it's a picture that appears about a million times when you type in John Cavanagh's name into google). Made by John Cavanagh for 'The Coronation Collection' in 1953, it has a uniquely designed fabric by Oliver Messel and it's absolutely gorgeous! Both vintage, and classy (unlike some vintage clothes that look like something a frumpy old person would wear), it's stunning and I would love to own it. Imagine going to a uni ball in that...
