Summary
COI synopsis: One of the most colourful occasions in the English sporting calendar is the Henley Regatta. This annual event, held on the upper reaches of the Thames, draws competitors from all over the world. But rowing, as ‘Carrousel Britanico’ shows, is not the only attraction as fashions are almost as popular. Here some model girls display clothes designed by the Fashion House of London.
