60 years ago this week, in the April 1, 1957 issue of LIFE - a fashion article ran about a young new designer in Paris - Guy Laroche. This image ran with the following caption: “Most sophisticated dress, worn by Jackie, is black taffeta, has low back, puffy skirt. Laroche feels most women “fortify their fronts, but neglect their backs.” This is one of several dresses designed to correct situation.“ (Yale Joel—The LIFE Picture Collection/Getty Images) @fashionfriday #guylaroche #paris #fbf
