Summary

Pathe synopsis: Just as perfect, but with a warmth that no sculptor can ever create, is a beautiful woman. And none more lovely than a group of Italian models visiting England for the first time as Ambassadors of Italian haute-couture. And their display is a tribute to the beautiful gowns that are today coming fom the fashion houses of Rome, Florence and Milan. [Filmed in the grounds of Osterley House.]
