Here is a gorgeous brocade dress and jacket, photographed by Richard Avedon. 

Richard Avedon (1923-2004) was a photographer who reached the top ranks of his profession. He was the chief photographer at Harper's Bazaar. Avedon did not conform to the standard technique of taking fashion photographs, where models stood emotionless and seemingly indifferent to the camera. Instead, Avedon showed models full of emotion, smiling, laughing, and, many times, in action.
