Bee in My Bonnet, Beetle on My Button
I was rummaging around online and came across these images of some insect-accented Schiaparelli pieces from her Summer 1937 (butterfly gown) and Fall 1938 collections. The suit jacket has beetle buttons! What an intriguing collar/necklace, as well! Okay, time for this gal to buzz off and get ready for an evening of playing social butterfly.

Oh my goodness!!!
I am really loving the butterfly dress. It's fab. :)
I haven't seen the insect necklace before! Can you believe how ahead of her time Miss Schiap was? It blows the mind. Nice post!
Beetle buttons, that's great!
ooh gawd not roaches around my neck
Really striking, the collar especially!
I love how she had such fun with fashion. I checked out a huge coffee table book on her designs from the library and just gorged myself on fabulousness.
Oh goodness that gown is gorgeous!!!!
Elsa was incredible ... nothing was too wild for her to tackle.
I love Schiaparelli. So quirky, and elegant.
