Back in the day a Tom Rogers worked for my father probably late 1930′s. My father noticed that he wore the same white shirt everyday. My father asked Why? He said it was the only one he had. So the next day my father brought into the office a bunch of his shirts for Tom. Life went on and
Tom Rogers married Ceil Chapman. Tom never forgot the kindness. Every year a pure silk dress would show up for my mother. Gave my older sister a job. And hand picked mink plets for a mink stole for my mother. Just thought you would like to know…………

Thank you so much for selecting our rare and wonderful Ceil Chapman! It is one of a number we have in our collection at The Goddess Room. This is actually a 2 piece, a cape and spagetti strap dress. The fabric is silk chiffon and silk organza in nude which is so on trend right now. A wonderful wedding set for the modern girl who likes to do things differently! This unique piece will shortly be seen on our website modeled with a pork pie Schiaperelli hat in pink organza and cutout lace for the gamine look!

We love it and know you will too.
