The clothes werent just about looking good after years of wearing whatever was just practical, affordable or available during the war. Times were changing and the French wanted to show this celebration in their clothes. Within the museum were rooms filled with dresses from some of Frances most famous designers.Then I had some of the most delicious macaroons(蛋白杏仁饼干) Ive ever tasted in a cafe to regain my strength before I set out for Galerie Vivienne, a shopping mall opened in 1823. 21.
