Decolletes should follow the principal theme of one's evening gown, according to Jean Patou. (Left) On a deep wino red evening gown of the Now Velours Paysan, Patou cuts a horizontal strapping to the decollete that tends to diminish the greater length of bodice brought about by the lowered waistline, which is the theme of his new collection. (Right) On a Bordeau red evening gown with a very low back, Patou adds an extra brace around the top of the arm to give width to the shoulders.
