The ever mysterious Madame Grès (1903-1993), discreetly reigned for 50 years as one fo the great French fashion designers. She began her career by making toiles for large Parisian fashion houses and opened her first small shop in 1937, where she created dresses through the 1970s. A true fashion pioneer with a keen eye for detail and perfection, Madame Grès was known for her mastery of drapery and incorporating wrapped fabric into her gowns. In 1979, a Grès-Cartier jewellery collection was created, and this necklace is a rare example of the collaboration.
